pcx125grey

The Honda PCX125 is the most recent addition to their scooter range. It is the ideal city scooter, powered by a fuel injected, liquid cooled 125cc engine, it capably reaches speeds of up to 100km/h. It comfortably accomodates a pillion passenger, should that be required. It features an ACG brushless starter with idle stop technology. This feature, which can be turned off, cuts the engine when it has been idle for three seconds and then instantly resumes when you roll on the throttle. This means that the scooter can achieve in excess of 40km/litre, which is better than any scooter in its class.  It boasts ample storage that can house a full face helmet and more. It has the option of a top box and rack for those requiring greater storage capacity. 14 inch wheels do an excellent job of delivering a stable ride and also serve to reduce the impact of pot holes, which are all too common on Sydney roads. It features an attractive modern design which is consistent with some of Honda's bigger bikes. All this for around $4500 adds up to a appealing offering when compared to the competition. Freedom motorcycles has the PCX125 in stock now in a range of colours and a demonstrator is available to ride. If you are in the market for a scooter then this one is definately worth a look.
