Overview

Introducing the 2011 Honda PCX, a stylish and efficient scooter that bridges the gap between functionality and fun. Priced at an accessible US$ 3,399, this urban commuter is designed for riders seeking a reliable and economical means of transport without sacrificing style. With its sleek lines and vibrant color options—including Pearl White and Candy Red—the PCX stands out in a crowded market, appealing to both new riders and seasoned enthusiasts alike. Its compact design and lightweight construction make it an ideal choice for navigating through crowded city streets and tight parking situations, ensuring that riders can enjoy the freedom of the open road without the hassle of a larger motorcycle. At the heart of the PCX is a robust 125cc single-cylinder, four-stroke engine that delivers impressive performance while maintaining exceptional fuel efficiency. With a compression ratio of 11.0:1 and a bore and stroke of 52.4 x 57.9 mm, this engine offers a balanced blend of power and smooth operation. The liquid-cooled system ensures optimal performance, even in warmer conditions, while the automatic transmission and belt final drive provide effortless acceleration and a smooth ride. Riders will appreciate the responsive handling, enhanced by a rake angle of 27.0° and a well-tuned suspension system featuring a 31mm hydraulic front fork and a unit swingarm at the rear, allowing for confident cornering and a comfortable ride over varying road surfaces. The 2011 Honda PCX is not just about performance; it also boasts a range of features designed to enhance the riding experience. With an electric starter for convenient ignition and a fuel capacity of 6.06 liters (1.60 gallons), this scooter offers the practicality needed for daily commutes. The bike's lightweight design (127 kg or 280 lbs) and low seat height of 759 mm (29.9 inches) make it accessible for riders of all sizes. Additionally, the PCX comes with a transferable unlimited-mileage limited warranty, showcasing Honda's commitment to quality and customer satisfaction. This scooter is equipped with a single disc front brake and an expanding drum brake at the rear, ensuring reliable stopping power and safety for everyday use. **

Pros

  • Fuel Efficiency: The PCX is designed for excellent fuel economy, making it perfect for city commuting and reducing overall running costs.
  • User-Friendly Design: Lightweight construction and a low seat height make it easy for riders of all experience levels to handle and maneuver.
  • Stylish Aesthetics: With its modern design and eye-catching color options, the PCX is sure to turn heads on the road.

Cons

  • Limited Power for Highway Use: While perfect for city riding, the 125cc engine may struggle with higher speeds and longer highway trips.
  • Small Storage Capacity: The PCX's under-seat storage is limited, which may not accommodate larger items or full-face helmets.
  • Basic Suspension Travel: The rear suspension offers only 2.9 inches of travel, which may not provide a plush ride on bumpy roads compared to larger scooters.
