What to do if PIAGGIO X9 Evolution 500 Scooter has insufficient braking?
- DDiane WelchJul 26, 2025
If your PIAGGIO Scooter has insufficient braking, several factors could be responsible. First, inspect the brake pads for wear, ensuring they exceed the minimum thickness of 1.5mm. Next, verify that the brake discs aren't worn, scored, or warped. Check the brake fluid level in the pumps and replace the fluid if needed. Also, ensure there's no air in the brake lines and bleed them if necessary. Lastly, confirm that the front brake caliper moves correctly in alignment with the disc. Another cause may be fluid leakage in the hydraulic braking system, in that case replace the failing elastic fittings, plunger or brake pump seals.
