BuffaloRescue Posted June 12, 2017 Share Posted June 12, 2017 Hi I can't decide to buy a new PCX or a Aerox The Aerox looks a lot better in my opinion and seems to have more power and for me a little more comfortable ride. How does it compare to PCX is other areas such as reliability, fuel consumption etc? Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MINIMIGLIA Posted June 12, 2017 Share Posted June 12, 2017 I have had both, the Aerox is far better than the pcx, it handles and feels so much better, both should be as reliable as each other, not really worried about fuel consumption, just fill up as needed it is only a run about scooter. Yes agree aerox type R looks so much better. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've had 3 PCX's and from memory the first 125 version had a much smaller fuel tank. Getting around 270Kms on a tank now is a big plus for me so I'm kind of hoping Yamaha might do something about the size of the tank before I change next year.

Richard-BKK Posted June 13, 2017 Share Posted June 13, 2017 If you plan to change next year a whole new set of options will be available for you to look at... For now the Yamaha Aero 155 has a fuel tank that holds 4.6 liters of fuel. That is small compared with the Honda PCX150 which has according to Honda an 8 liter fuel tank. The Honda PCX150 is a 2014 model, with a 3-year model upgrade routine, we should get a new Honda PCX150 this year or early next year. But Honda would not rule the premium scooter market alone, it will by that time have stiff competition from the Yamaha XMax 300… Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jdee88 Posted June 13, 2017 Share Posted June 13, 2017 Hello Everyone, i'm new to this forum from Manila and i've been lurking on threads that has Aerox on it's topics. Can anyone please share your honest review on Aerox because i've been planning on acquiring this scooter for about a month now, stocks are so scarce since the first shipment and that hundreds if not thousands are on the waiting list from different dealerships. So, do you guys really think it's worth the wait? TIASent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Had 3 CBR 150's before the PCX's so 3 seems to be my boredom threshold will be watching out for any new releases in the coming year with interest.

Buy an NMax it has a 6.6l tank. On 6/12/2017 at 4:49 PM, RobFord said: There's nothing more irritating than filling up twice a week. Some cage drivers fill up twice per journey. Solution: Make visiting the gas station part of your routine? Or buy more and decant at home? (Which is what I used to do in Indo as the gas station was outside the compound) Edited June 14, 2017 by VocalNeal Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

guzzi850m2 Posted June 15, 2017 Share Posted June 15, 2017 I think the Aerox looks very cool and much more bikelike than pcx. My pcx150 1st gen looks, hmm well uh: practical, I think we got it new in 2012 or 13 and never gave us problems. I refuse to change scout just because something new pops up, I like to use things first and the pcx is just a getting around Pattaya "thing" to me, so don't really care about how it looks. Further it got a 40l topbox permanently fitted, how will a aerox look with one fitted, I wonder. No, one or two years more on the pcx and then perhaps a new scout but are not in a hurry as long as the pcx works and so far no signs of getting tired. If I didn't own a scooter today, I would very likely get a Aerox if I like the ride/handling/power for what it is; a little +150cc scout. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
properperson Posted June 22, 2017 Share Posted June 22, 2017 (edited) Decided my 2015 PCX 150 needed replacng..... Went to my local Honda Scooter dealers, and gobsmacked to find they wanted 90,000 Baht for a new PCX, plus that gawdy orange plastic put me off too.... Bought an Aeorox Sport in blue for 66,000b out the door.... 3 months on.... Smaller and easier round town that the PCX, more stylish (imho)...wider wheels / tyres make it more sure footed (the 140 rear tyre same size to most 250cc geared bikes).... The wide seat more comfy than the PCX....The gas shocks help smooth out the bumps...The Yamaha's engine smoother than the Honda's.... The Aerox's tank is small compared to the PCX's is about the only downside i can think of... Edited June 22, 2017 by properperson Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
