I disagree, the fuel filler is in the ideal location. It is on the same side as one would normally dismount and it is conveniently placed up high and easily accessible...and just as you, or your passengers should avoid getting in and out of your vehicle when re-fueling due to the potential for static buildup to create a spark, you should dismount your bike and keep your feet on the ground when re-fueling your bike...it's a very rare occurrence, but all it takes is one time for everything in your life to change.
DAMN Honda to Hell for changing up the horn and indicator placement. I'm on my third Honda since they implemented this change, and I still find myself fumbling when reaching for the horn in an emergency. Forty years of riding and my muscle memory refuses to adopt to the change.
You might want to look at a bar riser to give you additional clearance for the turn lights. I added a riser to my PCX to move the bar up and away 3/4" in each direction, and found this to be absolutely perfect for me at 5' 9", and I have since added the riser to my 2016 Honda Forza 300, bringing the bar up and rearward for best reach. Risers can also be purchased with a single direction change only, I just happen to have one left over from my NC750XD that worked.
Horn should definitely be below indicators and any other button mandatory as a matter of safety
Love your content! Keep up the great work!
Now they have electric Zuma. The most beautiful scooter in my opinion is Suzuki epicuro 150 .. had it in red..
Great, was looking for a Zuma and video and you popped up in the search. A reviewer I know I can trust.
How you been. How is the africa twin?
@@motardsquid i sold the africa twin and am currently "bikeless". I had to make some other things financial priorities the last couple of years. Thinking of getting a scooter to address my bike fixation until i get another motorcycle or two. I can park the bike in my work garage downtown and ride it on weekends and around downtown.
I bought a 2022 Zuma (BWS125 here in Canada) as my first intro to scooters after 40 years of riding various bikes and I absolutely loved zipping around town on that thing. Fun and very practical for city riding, and that flat footwell made mounting and dismounting so easy...kind of reminiscent of being 12 yrs old riding up to the park and just hopping off of my bicycle on the fly. However I needed something that could take me down the highway, so after owning a Honda PCX150 for a year, I've settled on a 2016 Honda Forza 300...still not quite checking all the boxes, but until Yamaha offers colours other than 'Henry Ford Black' on the Xmax 300, it's Honda with it's azz backward horn and turn indicator arrangement for me.
Sadly, Yamaha didn't release this in the Philippines. This is my dream scooter.
Where do I get the Zuma 125 windshield
I was going to get one but after sitting on one at a dealership, my knees are just to close to the handlebars. Looking at Genuine Hooligan. Thx for the vid.
Yeah, scooters are so useful. The Suzuki Bergman 650 Executive is amazing. I think 250cc perfect size in town.
small and litgh scooter with small tires are fun to ride 👍✌️🤙
Where did you get windshield from
I am 5'6". Will this work for me?
Do you think the turn signal lights could be moved??? Have you compared this scooter to a Honda ADV 160?
The signal can be moved, but also the handlebar is too low and the floor platform is too high. You can come and check the zuma out if you want. I do have it for sale ;)
Everything i can gather from the adv150 and the adv160 is that its much better than the zuma. But in a way it's not a comparison, the zuma is a rugged adv scooter that you go on trails. The adv is a killer 150 motor from honda that is smooth as silk(i imagine it being so just from riding my pcx). I appreciate the zumas looks, but the ergonomics are strange, and the 125 cc is made for euro motorcycle licensing standards. 150cc is the goldilocks of scooters.
Vespas and piaggio 150s have flat and low floor boards. I’ve had both. A Vespa racing 60s 150 and a Liberty 150s. The pcx is as comfy, but the I prefer the upright position on the Italian scooters.
Vespas are not any better than a yamaha or a honda - ive had a 2022 vespa 300 gts and its NOT better than my 2010 honda elite
@@1blackpaper I didn't say they were better. I said the floor is flat and lower. I said I preferred the seating position on the vespa. For the record, I have a PCX150 now. I had a 2020 GTS300 HPE and the motor drank oil so I sold it. If you think the floors are the same height, I recommend you sit on both and you'll know what I am talking about.
@@forrysc yeap i fell for the VESPA hype !, 3 month old battery would NOT turn the motor over but just quite didnt have enough juice to start, and every fill up the check engine light came on, the burping sounds after a ride. the fuel milage was terrible also. got rid of it for a 2022 honda NC750X DCT
@@1blackpaper mine had the "incorrect decompression lever" and would not turn over at all if the motor happened to stop at a certain cycle in the compression stroke. The parts catalog showed 5 different decompression levers. lol.
No ABS on this, that is a speed ring for the speedometer sensor in the front.
The floorboard kills it for me! Otherwise, it would be a great bike.
Iam at 2400 miles on my ruckus and tread on tires is more than half worn on back tire
Why do these tires last so little?
