D_Mac 9,317 #1 Posted August 14 (edited) So I picked this up from my neighbor for almost nothing. It's a 2011 Honda PCX 125 . He bought it brand new when he lived in Cali. Then he moved to AZ where it was last registered. 10 years ago he moved here to NY where it has been parked in the garage ever since. 10 years of bad gas, 10 years never been started, 10 years of dust. I rolled it over to my house and my cousin and I started removing all the plastics. Let me tell you, that alone ain't easy. Siphon out what was in the tank. Flushed, rinse repeat, repeat, repeat. Put new gas and battery in it. Turned key, nothing. Checked all safety switches and the key and kill switch. Turned out bad kill switch. Made a little jumper wire and it was cranking with spark but not starting. Not getting fuel. Pulled the fuel pump out of tank and ordered a new motor fior the pump and kill switch and fuel injector. Parts came in and we put it all back together. Had some few extra screws when finished ! Ya know how that goes. Anyways it's running like a champ now. I have owned a few motorcycles in my day. Riding this is nothing like riding a motorcycle. Being it's automatic im always looking to clutch, shift, use foot brake. None of that applies on this. Also the sitting position is strange. But is it fun ??? Heck yeah !!! Today i take it to get inspected. When title comes in most likely sell it, until then....... que the Born To Be Wild music. 20250808_192300.mp4 Edited August 14 by D_Mac 6 4 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

C-85 769 #3 Posted August 15 Speaking of Honda's, what happened with the Honda tractors? From what I remember, it looked like a good tractor and I really have liked the quality of any Honda! We have had several Honda vehicles and have had great luck with them! C-85 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
