Shop to rent yamaha aerox?

[H508]

Looking to buy an aerox but I want to rent one for a few days to compare to a new pcx150 I've had. 

Speedbike had one I saw from internet but it's rented out for a while. I drove by half a dozen rent shops around soi buakhao but they didn't have any.

Anyone know of a shop with location??

Maybe try this rental shop. They are located on Soi Khao Noi near to the new Tops supermarket.

Yep, they had a couple. A bit of a drive to get to, but now I can compare properly. Against popular opinion with all the praise for the aerox, I think the PCX will win this after an initial drive.

Aerox is head and shoulders better than an overprised old fashioned PCX, had both and still Aerox handles so much better.

Agree that the aerox is styled way better.

Better dash

ABS, keyless (well, my rental is an R, but I'd get the ABS version so still include this as a plus)

Engine sounded better and seemed smoother

Handling TBD until I ride it more and just get used to the difference from the pcx

 

Then there is...

Smaller gas tank isn't awesome.

The high passenger seat kinda sucks. Passenger's knees are an inch from the driver's elbows when in an natural driving position.

The foot pegs for passenger suck and are uncomfortable. Plus, if you put your heels on them, your toes are basically in the drivers calves. 

A less than 6' person on the back basically has to skydive off the back seat to get off. My girl was kinda scared, lol

For the gf who will be the primary driver of this scooter...she's 5'5" and has to slide down the seat at a stop to touch the ground. Then slide back up the seat when driving

Annoying that I have to position two helmets more carefully in the aerox as the middle portion of the storage cavity isn't as deep as the pcx where I'm basically able to toss 2 helmets and the seat always closes 1st time vs Aerox where it takes actual consideration.

 

PCX just...works... without thinking about it. I want to like the aerox more and thought it would win by a longshot, but I'll have to drive it more and hopefully get there. Would go the PCX if a gun was to my head now, even with the older styling/engine/options and inflated price.
