Hi, I was wondering is it normal for mpg to be around 59. The pcx currently has 20 miles exact. Is mpg higher during break in or lower. Also what is the max speed I can go during break in. Thanks in advance

Judging your mpg at only 20 miles in is not going to be accurate.
Just the same, the first tank on a scooter usually gives lower than normal mpg.
Don't panic just yet.

Oh ok, what is the max speed do you guys recommend me going. Also is starting half throttle consider bad when break in and adding mor egas to increase speed.

There is an ongoing civil war in the motorcycling community over how best to break in a new bike. On the one side, you have those who say ride it hard, and on the other there are those who say take it easy. For myself, I go the middle road.
During the 300 mile break-in of my own PCX, I rode it to its max if I needed to, but would roll on and off the throttle at higher speeds. My PCX turned out just fine.

Mix RPM'S- nothing steady for a long time. Keep RPM varied. Short duration run ups only. Do not idle long periods
