Leaking engine Coolant - Can I get some second opinions?

[LAPCX]

Hey all, started leaking engine coolant about a month ago. Saw the coolant light come on and thought I just needed more. Topped it off and went on my way until a few days ago when it was noticeably leaking onto my parking spot.

It slowly drips, so it's not a huge issue yet. Before I take it to the dealership and spend 200+ dollars, or tear it apart myself, do you guys think it looks like a loose bolt and that's it? I don't know much about the internals of the PCX and don't want to tear the side paneling off or spend money before I know I have to.

Take a look and let me know what you guys think. Thank you!

Could just be a loose hose.
Its easy enough to check, just take the radiator cover off and have a look.

The worst case scenario is that it's a head gasket or water pump.
But it might just be a lose hose. It could also be the radiator. Just take the radiator cover off, remove the seat and look for the sourc of the leak. You may have to dry the area really well and maybe even blow some compressed air if you have to find the source of the leak.

Definitely don't ride it with low coolant level and even with leaking coolant like this. It might be the headgasket and then your engine might get damaged.

Good luck.

It seems that is coming from the radiator area. I would check whether is from the hoses first. And then if not check the radiator . Bur don't ride it until the problem is solved because from a simple radiator problem you end up with a seized engine.
