taninthai Posted February 14, 2014 Share Posted February 14, 2014 as a scoot I'm really liking these now,a rear disk brake would have been nice but not really a necessity . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bung Posted February 14, 2014 Share Posted February 14, 2014 I'm thinking I should just pick up a second hand 150 but these look great and probably worth the extra cost. Any speculation on price? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
namdocmai Posted February 14, 2014 Share Posted February 14, 2014 I bet they also have a meep meep horn, if you buy one let them change that before delivery. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ll2 Posted February 14, 2014 Share Posted February 14, 2014 cheap scooter effort for masses from honda and it works well. led lights are cool but expecting more power this time. still honda sh150i is much more better and powerful scooter than this.

taninthai Posted February 14, 2014 Share Posted February 14, 2014 had a ride on the sh 150i its a nice ride with the bigger wheels but to me it just a big honda wave ,bit too much off a stiff upright riding position should be priced nearer to the pcx really, is it worth 100k or 20 k more than the pcx ,i don't really think it is. saying this i have yet to ride a pcx but the pcx looks more comfortable for sure.

z9999 Posted February 14, 2014 Share Posted February 14, 2014 Just returned from Chiang Saen where they told me they would have a 2014 PCX 150 in 2 weeks, but couldn't give me a firm price. They did have a Forza which they said they would sell for 170,000 baht, but that's not what I want or need. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

phetphet Posted March 13, 2014 Share Posted March 13, 2014 Had a look at a red one and a white one yesterday. The (matt) white is a funny texture. Feels rough, unlike the smooth polished white of the previous 150. Looks cheap, and I think it will mark a lot easier than the older model. I didn't like it. I hope they will also do a gloss white. Red looks the normal smooth texture. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ll2 Posted March 13, 2014 Share Posted March 13, 2014 (edited) seen a black new pcx today on the road and it looks really uglier than the old one expect led lights that looks good and quality. looks so bland like a honda spacy.

Thailaw Posted March 14, 2014 Share Posted March 14, 2014 seen a black new pcx today on the road and it looks really uglier than the old one expect led lights that looks good and quality. looks so bland like a honda spacy. The seat on the new PCX looks very cheap (and ugly), but the old one, with the hump wasn't much better. Most people will change the seat on either model in any event. The LED lights look nice, but I expect that they could be installed in the older PCX150 with little cost or effort. So, no reason to upgrade to the new model, and if I was in the market for a PCX, I would probably look for a low km 2013 PCX and add YSS shocks, LED lighting and a custom seat rather than go for the 2014 PCX.

Paul3456 Posted March 14, 2014 Share Posted March 14, 2014 I stopped by the Honda dealer in Hua Hin on Monday and they had already sold all the new PCXs they had received. They could order me one, it would take a week-10 days to get here and the price is 82,000 baht. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LL - you've really got it in for the good old PCX - harping on how much better the SH150 is, despite its 20,000 b price premium.... so the SH has got a rear disc and bigger wheels - who cares - its F Ugly Below is a picture of an SH150 - can you honestly say its better looking than a PCX ??

I have no complaint about how the SH150 looks or how the PCX150 looks, and I was planning on buying a PCX150 too, but for a different use than what I bought the SH150 for. Who cares about what someone else thinks about how your bike looks as long as you like it? I thought the 2014 PCX150 was going to have rear disc, does it still have a drum brake on the rear? And the 16 rims and big tires on the SH150 make for a really comfortable ride, in my opinion. Edited March 14, 2014 by z9999 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NoshowJones Posted March 15, 2014 Share Posted March 15, 2014 Anybody know the price of the new pcx? Thank you Inviato dal mio iPhone utilizzando Thaivisa Connect Thailand I paid 78000 Baht for mine two days ago. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NoshowJones Posted March 15, 2014 Share Posted March 15, 2014 Honda dealer in bangsaen said new pcx isnt available till mid next month and no price yet. Maybe Brian from sumetcycle can confirm? I bought mine two days ago for 78.000 baht. I am sure it is the new one as it has a phone charger. Another thing not mentioned so far, I also have a remote control alarm.

Familyonthemove Posted March 16, 2014 Share Posted March 16, 2014 i do think the PCX is the best Thai built scooter for city use - and the convenience of a charger and the storage spaces on the new one is great - so I may be getting one soon for city use. But I think the large plastic front end is designed to appeal to people who really want a car. It creates a car-like dashboard and so is like a poor mans Honda City. I think bikers looking for handy city transport will prefer the larger wheels and motorcycle inspired looks of the SH 150. Most of us are bikers and car drivers - so it depends on if your bike-side is dominant or your car-side. So people who prefer a PCX are closet car drivers and SH lovers are closet bikers. But I'm more influenced by cost - so I'm a closet cheapskate. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wantan Posted March 16, 2014 Share Posted March 16, 2014 ^ Exactly, one main point in PCX vs. SH150 always is the price difference (100k vs. 80k). If there is no real price difference many people will go for the SH i guess, even thai people. Most people want something the others not have.
