A low mileage, used 2019 and later years Honda PCX150 should be able to fullfil your critireas, and it is not a thief magnet (which may be another plus point)

Or pcx is considered the best in its class Lready? Yamaha NMax 155, SYM Jet X (both available brand new). Honda PCX150 has been replaced with Honda ADV150. |

QUOTE(MasterConfucion @ Nov 6 2022, 07:28 PM) What are the disadvantages of the bike that I should take in mind? Scooter has less top speed than moped of same engine capacity, the only disadvantage to me. Pickup is better on scooter (traffic light winner) compared to non-modified moped.I read in a blog says scooter tires cannot punchet? That's so cool.. stil remember 20 years ago tire punchet need push the bike 😅 Scooter tyres get punctures too. |

QUOTE(MasterConfucion @ Nov 6 2022, 07:37 PM) I read in blog adv is not really cheap right? At least 15k? Yes, Honda ADV150's price is on the high side.The maintenance for scooter is need more parts servicr? Other than oil and filter still need what other? I have shared my servicing cost here before. If one follows blindly what the shop recommends (pricey engine oils but not suitable for scooters, earlier oil replacements), yes the servicing cost is going to be expensive. I follow the service manual and my scooter still feels good, and cheap to run. |

QUOTE(Nightstalker1993 @ Nov 6 2022, 08:04 PM) One particular thing I dislike about scooters is that due to the smaller tires they use, tramlining is much more pronounced so when riding on some road irregularities, you might get caught off guard with your bike suddenly wanting to turn one side. Also scooters are less forgiving if you lock up your wheels, so make sure it has ABS. My knee and inky motorcycle crash is when I grabbed my front brakes too hard on my VS125 and crashed at 60kmh. True, tramlining is the reason I originally wanted to buy the heavily discounted NOS Piaggio Liberty 150. It has 15 inch wheel. But, I was scared by its maintenance costs and service supports as I am not located in Klang Valley. In the end it was Honda PCX (14") vs Yamaha NMax (13").This post has been edited by BlackBananaV6: Nov 6 2022, 07:21 PM |
