CBS fluid change

[Sintonimike]

So in order to access the cbs reservoir a couple of plastics need to be removed, which I did, and after bleeding the brake line and replacing the plastics, which I did, while breaking a couple of small tabs, I couldn’t help but think theres got to be a better way. Is there a reason why Honda didnt put the reservoir somewhere near the brake lever? I watched a YouTube video with a Pcx that had the reservoir in that place.

I am reading a lot about broken tabs and need to remove some of the plastics on my PCX. Is there anything you would do differently next time in order not to break more?

Don't remove them in colder weather unless you really need to. I did that and almost all broke off (inner front plastics to get to CBS reservoir).
Remove them and do most of the maintenance before the cold spell arrives, as the plastics will be less brittle and more giving.
