Re: Unimpressed

The 2nd reason I did my own 2500 was scheduling with dealer who told me he had nothing available for 5 weeks. WOW! Why are they so busy? Not enough personel, too many bikes coming in?

I will definitely check the hose. I was not expecting great things from this bike, but 35mpg less and 55mph does not add up to the experience that I am hearing from everyone else (not to mention, I know what it was like before the service, as it worked flawlessly from the dealer) or the money spent....

Re: Fuel economy

I put in a K&N filter at the 2500 mile service, plug is clean and gapped. I may have overfilled oil. After reading other posts, I have not checked correctly. I also have not checked the screen (doohh!)

Re: Fuel economy

My pcx ran badly after the 600 mile service, I bought a service manual and did the valve adjust myself at the 2500 interval. Now it runs just as bad as it did after the dealer service. At 3200 miles, I am only going 55 miles an hour and 75 mpg. I have noticed that I have oil in the crankcase breathe...
