best motorcycle scooter I have ever owned . quite nippy as well. . my mate just paid £2100 for a lexmoto aura . told him to pay more and get pcx. but no got the cheep Chinese lookalike. been back to shop 3 times now. you get what you pay for. .
I have this scooter for about i year now .
Man this is such a great buy !
I dont regret it at all !
Runs so good , start immediatly , brakes are good , comfort is great , enough storage space , superbe fuel consumption ( 2.0L- 2.2 L/100km ) tires a great , its just super !!
And with the right gear its not that cold on a scooter !
I drive it every day to work ( about 30km total ) .
Btw great review !!
Have you done some longer distance with it? I am seriously into buying it, i would also do the ocassional out of city driving, 150-200km.
@@apesic6 i only use it for work , but i have watched a video on youtube of a guy and he does a roadtrip in europe so its perfect for longer distances to !
Hi I’m looking to purchase a bike for my business 2-5 bikes starting is this a bike to consider investing into for courier services on a 139 L - 315 L capacity delivery box ?
@@chloebutler3416 ooh yeah this bike is gonna do the job !!
@@apesic6 it is a capable machine, you can even tour the world on these 👍
A bit harsh to criticise it for not having a kick start when hardly any bike, large or small, has one these days.
Loved the golf ball experiment at the end. Great trivia.
Just personal petty things. I have one with all extras, screen, heated grips, rear rack and luggage top box and it's truly the best toy I've purchased this year.
Thanks for the no nonsense review really nice scooter. I'm considering the pcx but also looking at the 2020 sh125, I''d love to see a review on the sh if possible.
Sh has the better 4 valve engine. I'm hoping they fit the 4v to the pcx
Iv got the 20 plates PCX 125 and done 20 miles so far and I agree heated grips and a taller screen would be beneficial. I can fit a flip-up full-face helmet under and my chain.
I ride a PCX150 at work, can't get my HJC IS-Max under the seat, but do have a top box for helmet, gloves, first aid kit, and paperwork. The space under the seat I can fit my riding jacket and pants for when I need to go for a walk.
I have managed to get 100kmph out of it but it is wind direction dependant, and it is subceptable to being blown around and can also be tricky in slippery conditions.
Good review. Can you tell me what make is your camera please?
here in the Philippines we have the same orientation of PCX the only difference is we got the pcx 150 with keyless variant only. this bike is very comfortable to ride and fuel efficiency..ride safe.
Good for you. It's what I want. Sadly in piece of shit Europe it's only 125, no smart key and costs double after all the criminal taxes
Yeah, the keyless option would've been so nice for this bike in Europe. A missed chance...
@@BrechtGijbels well the new one has the keyless option which is good now
Nice video Bennetts team! I reccomend too! Anyone help me in one question: what is the right air pressure of tires of this pcx? 2.5 Bar is enough or is a lot?
the manual recommends 2 bar in the front and 2 1/4 in the rear so you,ve got a bit too much in
If you turn the Idle stop turn off it increases the extra power from the get go. But its the best in its class in perfomance. You can buy an aftermarket touring screen for the PCX.
Hi mate... Good review and I love Honda. I've never had a bike and not rode 1 in 25 years. I'm thinking of giving my Golf to the wife when she passes and getting 1 of these for work and share with my stepdaughter. What kind of gloves do you wear and jacket? Does the jacket have protection in it? I know nothing.
Anyone know if I can plug a hairdryer into the little power outlet in the 'glovebox'? I need to take off some heated grips and have been advised a hairdryer is the best way to melt the glue. The outlet is my only option as I can't park anywhere near a plug.
Amazing review. Very funny way to do a review. :D
I have just bought one but as I'm retired getting from a to b quickly is not my concern anymore.
Enjoying the journey and scenery at a relaxed pace is now my main priority.
Rain? No thanks, did that commuting into London summer and winter for 15 years.
Fair weather only riding from now on.
I may even do some touring
Helmet, hate the bloody things
So bought the lightest open face I could find.
Head in a bucket is not my thing even though they give much better protection.
So fitting a skid lid under the seat is no problem.
Overall these imho are one of the best small capacity scooters around.
Lee B I totally agree with you about full face helmets, I have always felt Claustrophobic wearing them, now I have sold my larger bikes I’m going to get myself a scooter and enjoy the freedom of wearing an open face helmet.
@@jasonclarke7422 To be honest Jason one of the reasons I stopped biking for many years was not just starting a family ( so a car was a must)
But the helmet law, most of the time I never wore one until the law changed.
I didn't nore did my other competitors wear helmets when I did Trials riding either. Flat caps was the style or in Don Smith our ex World champion club presidents case a cigarette also hanging out of his mouth.
Even in that helmets are compulsory now
Happy riding 🖖
Looks great like the front looks like a Fireblade. Abs amazing and space seat and dash. There is a promo Honda at the moment interesting. Very tempting to replace current bike 6 years old nearly. 😎🏍️. Actually looks like a small motorbike somehow.
How are the rear brakes
I have a 2020 version and I love it, so far I have got it up to 64mph.but Tbh it will cruise at 55 all day..
did they change the fuel tank capacity?
2014 model has a claimed range of 230 miles???
My full tank is 8 Euro.. and driving him every day 65 km on my job... per month i need 40 e... so that is something :) and i m driving fast...
Scooters are the best ❤️

12:48 that giggle kills me
"The Commuter Grand Prix" xDDDDDD - Brilliant
Anyone know the tyre size front & rear (pcx 125 2019 model)
I mate wot better honda pcx 125 our a lexmoto aura honda is second hand can you let me no please
Nice review but comment about not having a kick start....really, when did you last ride a bike with a kick start? 😀
Yeah, exactly what I was thinking.
Incase the electric start fails
can you make a review of piaggio liberty 125 please?
It's a great bike, had one for a year, top box for free, nice smooth bike and one of the cheapest 125's out there, about 800 cheaper than the PCX.
I live 10 miles from work and I eat a lot of eggs which are almost the same shape as a golf ball so this is the scoot for me! 🤣🤣
Do the xmax 125 pls!
Could you compare with the yamaha nmax 125?
Suspension is better on the nmax. Everything the else the pcx 125 wins. It's even faster than the nmax
PCP deal deposit £150 plus £50 per month over 3 years = £1950. Is it very that cheap?
Plus a grand to pay at the end. He said it in the video
The old golf ball test...classic.
Ha! I'd not seen it done before. Cans of coke in a pannier, yes but not golf balls.
@@bennettsbikesocial nope! you are the only one !!! :))
@@bennettsbikesocialthat was a great way to determine underseat space. Great idea!
@@leebrewer7394 It's an old one but a good one!
Nice video
Thanks. We try!
Nice bike but some very typical overtaking for someone who drives a bike thats normally alot faster.
😎👍
Golf balls ? Curious test.
Love the normally I like the 150bhp bikes on the track comment.
Who are you kidding ? On the Track?
I've yet to come across a quick bike rider who stays anywhere near the speed limits.
The worst thing about that bike is the handlebar. It just looks like an afterthought.
At 134 miles per gallon It'll do way more than 170 miles on an 8 litre tank.
Whats the fastest it goes?
It's up for debate depending on amount of fuel on board, tyre pressures, road gradient, wind and weight of rider but i reckon 67mph is about right!
@@bennettsbikesocial they fast at pulling away ?
What a load of balls 😂
I have the Honda Dylan a whacking 1.5 h.p more
I wanna buy this on but black color
Nah get red or white, scratches show in the black homie
How tall are you?
Hello, I’m 6ft tall. Cheers, Michael
3... buy something else. Sums it up pretty well for me, but an interesting watch for sure. I'd probably be well up for it once I can't lift my leg over a proper bike. Sorry, don't want to hurt anyone's' feelings. These bad boys are meant to be pretty good from what I've heard. "A thinking man's bike" is the term I like to use
I have pcx from 2019 Jan. And he spend driving 70or100 km/h about 3 l on 100 km. He is not fast bike goes about 105 km/h max... maybe 112... anf my fullfacehelmet fit there... price in Austria is 2900 e.... insurance is about 12 e per month. Great bike for every day.. smal and real City bike... I will give it from 1 to 10 ... I give 9. And u do not need biger sheld becouse for 60 km per day is ok bike.
Scooters 125 are good I have a better spec scooter being forza 125 these are the best 125 scooter range in the market I used to gave a pcx 2014 model was amazing on fuel especially
Hahaha
How tall are u
6ft / 183cm
£295 for heated grips??!! Jesus christ you can get oxford ones fitted for £100 total
I used to wear fleece waxed mittens with silk liners they worked well on my 15mile commute even in mid winter. The thumbs were still ok for switch gear
Think I paid £9 but that's was a long time ago.
Lee B Yeah just wearing good gloves is fine for short rides. Heated grips only useful for long hours riding
To understand something, I looked at the video in the mirror.
363 golf balls :))))
Will a helmet fit under the seat?
You didn't mention it.😄
Tigerick It’s a pretty important asset and many will want to know what can fit under there. For some, it could be crucial to purchasing or not.
@@bennettsbikesocial I went to Barcelona last year and every other scooter was a PCX. They seem extremely popular there. It's a shame we don't have the climate for the Scooter culture.
@@tigerick7291 Absolutely, I can't get over why more commuters won't exchange the expensive, over-crowded and unpunctual public transport system for the freedom of the roads. With some waterproofs, heated grips and decent kit, you're laughing! Did you watch the Scooter vs Train video we published back in October? Michael
@@bennettsbikesocial No I haven't seen that but I will look it up. When I was a lad I only rode motorbikes, I had a ZZR 600 at the time but in winter I rode a 90cc Yamaha step through that I bought for £50. I was great fun and just as quick as the big bike for my 8 mile daily commute at the time.
@@tigerick7291 Here it is: ruclips.net/video/b6mq-QwPy9s/видео.html - a bit of light-hearted, Top Gear-esque look at it but with an underlying message that PTW's are cool!
FAST ENOUGH TO GET YOU IN TROUBLE FOR SURE BUT IS IT FAST ENOUGH TO GET YOU OUT!
Need this india for fighter of burgman
No they won't . If they bring it it would be expensive you can buy interceptor 650 here for this bike price
1010 drillings bike
Overtaking in the same lane as cars looks really unsafe
Can be done
you just have to time it right
134 mpg ? never on mine only in a crap dream,
Why are all Scooter reviews obsessed with getting a helmet under the seat? What do motorcyclists do??
They strap it onto their handlebars waiting for it to be stolen
@@steve00alt70 😂
Better of buying with yamaha aerox
The roads are really bad. The asphalt
That is GB. That is there like
@@atomskiMarsic worse than Portugal
@@filipesilvestre6108 if u drive bike... visit Austria, we have roads for that :) and good Bier
