So I've been having a puddle under the bike since I took my last ride before the new year, I thought I had a slight oil leak and had been seeing a few drips here and there. When I got back I noticed a lot more fluid under there and upon further investigation, found it was coolant. Been so busy with the Bus and other projects that I haven't felt like messing with it until yesterday.
I dried everything off and checked all the hoses, they were dry. Felt around under the thermostat and got some moisture from the seal behind the thermostat. Drained the cooling system, pulled the thermostat and tightened up the bolts behind it, they were pretty loose. Wondering if they loosened up from heat cycling?
Anyways I refilled the cooling system and purged all the air, reinstalled the tank and she fired right up. Put a bit of cardboard underneath and I'll check today after work to see if there's any more drips.
There's fork oil all over the front brake rotor, I've known the seal has been gone for a while but I finally bit the bullet and ordered fork seals, front and back pads. Debating whether to do chain and sprockets now or wait until after the season, sprockets still have a good bit of meat on them.
Also, something thats been bugging me for a while is the sticking odometer. The trip works fine but the odometer will stick and only work intermittently. I think I'm going to have to pull the speedo and clean and grease it and make sure nothing is stripped out or broken.
