Re: A returning Muppet...
Thanks everyone, great to be back.
PCX collected on Tuesday. Very happy with it, some initial thoughs below:
Positives:
The ride quality is very smooth, what a difference from my old 50cc.
The bigger wheels are a real benefit and seem to soak up the defects on our crappy roads with ease.
The engine oozes power and is very responsive.
Bike starts on the button and idles away happily.
Tried the "idle stop" system which works fine although takes a bit of getting used too !
Switchgear and dash are all excellent.
No issues so far with the tyres.
Mirrors are OK, better than a lot of stock scoot ones but extenders ordered for a better view.
Cons:
The seat isn't great for taller riders like me. Although I have the newer "non-hump" model you still find yourself wedged up against the upstep for the pillion area. I'm 6'2".
I miss my audible indicators, minor point I know but I found them useful.
