Not aware of any trackdays stipulating water only, but......... If you are going to run water only, distilled or otherwise, drain and flush the system regularly.
It doesn't take long to start clogging the cooling system up, especially the rad.
The corrosion also eats away at the mechanical seal behind the pump impeller and then you'll be running water/oil in your cooling system

cheers nelly - will bear that in mind

btw i forgot about coming back about the 748 evo no plate hanger - are they still in stock? whats your contact number?

DD bikes are air cooled

of course - sorry - totally absorbed with the fizzer rebuild and so forgot about the 600ss!

Just done my first track day at Oulton Park last Friday on a mates J reg ZXR 750. What a great day! So now that I am hooked can anyone give me advice on crash protection for my 1995 900ss ie where to obtain, how to fit. I want to do some tracks but I want to minimise damage if I slide off the thing. Btw it dont have the 2 front side fairing panels fitted. Cheers, Bri.
