noticed on Sunday that I had coolant being srayed up the LHS front of the fairing and into and under the screen...was like a fine spray (similar to riding thru a puddle and the after spray there) and as we hadnt sat in traffic couldnt be due to overheat or similar
cleaned bike and removed fairings, tightened hose clamps, cant see any evidence now but as I just cleaned it there was lots of water around!!
going to have a proper look tomorrow...any suggestions the best way of tracing it, thinking particulary if a small split or similar ion hose or (god forbid) radiator. Oh and the expansion tank has no signs of water, altho I stopped on the ay ho,e and it was on min...did not overheat tho and I can hear the water when I squeeze a hose.
yep, what he said, about an hour or so to swop over .... about £17 for the tank if i remember rightly, it's the little white tank below your ignition key ..
ta - whats best way to check it before I replace? Or is it pretty obvious once the tank is off?
you need to run the bike til it gets very hot, then with a torch you'll normally see water dribbling out and onyo the rad / v piece / floor etc .. it's usually a tiny hole ....
