Dash Rattle
Posted: Wed Jun 01, 2016 8:17 am
I've searched my particular issue (with the bike, my PERSONAL issues might have to go into another forum...) and I can't find anything on this one...
One the bike is warmed up, I get a really annoying plastic rattle from the front of the bike, it one happens when I idle at a stop. I first thought it was the tall windscreen I installed, (when I held onto it, the rattle stopped) but the bolts are all tight on both sides of the mounting bracket.
I finally found the source of the rattle, the seam just forward on the dash surround (I took some pics in the parking lot this morning, but they are terrible). The seam does not seem consistent across between the two pieces, but if I give a slight whack! with my palm to the front of the dash, I take care of the problem for about five minutes.
I assume that this is a simple matter of taking a few plastic bits off and setting them properly, but I have visions of broken tabs dancing in my head.
Which brings me to the actual (TLDR) questions for you fine folk:
1. Anyone ever had this rattle before and *(more importantly) take care of it?
2. Any links to the dash surround disassembly on a 2015-16 PCX (the older model is covered quite well)...
Thanks in advance all,
Mike
