Featured Replies

both my engine covers get very hot when i am rideing and the fan is on a lot is this normal? i can touch them but they are realy hot

That's normal - just see how hot the fuel tank gets too! :rotfl:

nice one thanks bud

be sure to buy yourself some of that super-coolant stuff those motocrossers use.......keep water from boiling over

you could try a cooler range spark plug ......masso

Just empty out the radiator coolant and pour in engine ice. No need to dilute and anything messy just pour it in and you will be amazed what a difference to engine temperature it makes.

have you checked your water level and if low just fill to the top will distilled water and anti freeze. The fan should not be on all the time mate :rotfl:

No no no no - Distilled water is still very corrosive. What you're after is deionized water :)
