New PCX 2015 Owner

Post by outlander »

I've just purchased a used pcx with 50 miles on the odometer. So far I love it. Today I was becoming familiar with the scooter and I am unsure about the CBS reservoir. I cannot see any fluid, just clear plastic. Any ideas? Would this be covered by warranty to have it looked at?

The fluid is very clear looking and if there is too much in it you may think it is empty. Stand the Bike on the center stand and look again. If it is truly empty I'd take it back to the dealer and have them top it off. Mine appears almost empty when it is on the side stand but is okay when it is on the center stand. Using the center stand may be the ticket.

I would also like to welcome you to the forum!

Thanks Homie do I get a free tank of gas for joining?

William whether it is on the side or center stand I cannot see any fluid, but the brakes feel fine. Do you know if a dealer will check it under warranty?

Iceman, no the owner was wealth and had a lot of toys he was selling, he also had a black pcx 2015 for sale. I got it at a good price. below msrp.

I drove it today on my errands and so far im getting 97.5 US MPG, that is insane. I really like it. My motorcycle is a buell ulysses, a totally different beast.

My friend the only thing I can say is a reputable dealer should stand behind that but a phone call will let you know for sure. I would look for any fluid leaks though by parking on a clean surface pump the break handle and look for leaks for my own peace of mind. Honda would surely want fluid put in rather than pay for repairs during warranty. The warranty question should be put to your dealer, I believe. I wish I could help more

Shake the scooter from side to side while looking at the check window, you should see that the level is full.
