Modern Vespa

Have a Leaking puddle underneath the front wheel not sure what i should replace or not just bought it. Cracked attachment i noticed where its leaking too. Seems like grease on the floor? Anyone know? Thanks

Greetings:

By the quantity, I'd guess brake fluid. Brake line or fitting is incontinent or it's the contraption that locks up the front end if it's an MP3.

It looks like water. Sure you didn't ride in the rain? Or maybe it's condensation.

It would have helped immensely, if he took the picture before washing the whole thing..

Doesn't quite look like a banjo bolt to me. Perhaps the speedo cable and clamp?
All the liquid looks like it's beaded up like water, not spread out like oil.

It was leaking right where the crack is on that cable. Seemed like it was grease. Doesn't leak just sitting there, but after i rode around and parked it.

Sorry i rinsed it off then took the pic. Didnt know about the forum till later. ill take another pic of it tomm, but the cord was all greasy right where that crack was and came down the wheel and left a small puddle. couldn't smell any coolant or anything.

Could be grease.

That can't be a brake cable; it's on the wrong side. My guess is it's the speedometer cable. A little grease and a small crack in the rubber boot isn't anything to worry about.

Put a sheet of paper on the floor and try to collect more of the stuff. Enough to tell if it has a color to it.

And get a picture of the cable where it ends at the wheel hub so we can determine for sure whether it's a brake line or speedometer cable, or something else.

Yeah im 90% sure it was Grease and your right its not on the other side of the brake cable. Like you said speedometer cable possibly. Didn't know if i should worry about it. just saw a crack and grease on the ground after i took it around the block for a little bit. Was really hot out today in Florida too so maybe that has something to do with it too. thanks for the quick responses guys. Much appreciated.

The crack is on the rubber not the cable itself..

But if grease has come out, water eventually will get in creating problems..

Speedo cables are not that expensive or hard to replace..
