Hey bro sparker, i just change to a new One and it is still like this.

 

Ask your mech to do a pressure test of the radiator. If your mech don't know what is a radiator pressure test, it's time to change mech, bro.

 

When doing pressure test, confirm there's no externat leaks. Also check engine oil colour to ensure no internal leaks. If confirmed no leaks, change engine oil to a different brand.

 

I'm using Mobil 1. Frequently do high speed touring. In past 6 months, I only needed to top up once. Only top up reservoir a bit from low level line to full level line.

[azman ibrahim]

Ok bro. I will be going later. Will update you yah. And thank you so much for the info.

i got another problem. i encountered a high coolant temperature(the one above neutral) 2 months ago. so i went to workshop and true enough there is no coolant. and today, i just came back from jb, the high coolant temperature reappear again for 1 to 2 seconds and disappear. i am starting to have a big bad feeling about this bike. anybody encounter this problem? ever since i change coolant i been looking for signs of leaking but there is none. any help will be much appreciated.

have u check your radiator fan is working or not. let it the engine running for awhile and see if the fan is working.

ramsnake: i went to planet already. my coolant at the side panel totally dried up. but the one infront was still full. so chong told me there might be a very small crack somewhere at the hose. so he told me to top up once it finishes. and now i am thinking to actually change the hose. cant keep topping up right? u got any suggestions bro ramsnake?

 

glide77: i check already. it always turn on when it is hot. but it always turn on most of the time when the coolant is out.

 

 

sorry cant quote u guys. dont know what happen to my profile!

inside the tail board

[Cruiserian]

inside the tail board

 

Left side are full with wires, place at the right side? or at the tail light there?

[SparkerS1]

Yes, the tail light where the tail board is.

 

i am not mentioning about the side panniers for the fuses & coolant reservoir.

speaking of coolant, time for me to check the level tmr

[glide77]

than its either your radiator termostat located at the top radiator hose going to your engine or your water pump is not working.

It can't be water pump not working, @glide77.

The fact that he is continuing to ride the bike and just need to top up coolant indicates that the water pump is ok. If it's actually a case of the water pump not working, his engine would have fried itself long time ago.

 

@azman ibrahim

So, did you ask Chong to do pressure test? Pressure testing the cooling system will indicate where the leak is. Once leaking hose or connector is found just need to replace that hose or connector. Cheaper than just anyhow replacing all the hoses.

 

Radiator pressure testing is done by removing the radiator cap and fitting a pump to the radiator inlet. Once the system is pressurized, any leaks can be identified because coolant will be shooting out from the hole/gap.

 

Again, if your mech can't do the pressure test, find another mech. No need to visit workshops one by one to ask. Just call (look up advertisers' board for numbers) and ask over the phone...

yes correct..........

[azman ibrahim]

@ramsnake. ask if he does pressure test, he said yes but i didn't do it that day. was in a rush. I am waiting for my engine ice bottle to finish then go to chong and ask him bro. anyway. thank you so much for your advice yah. appreciate it very very much!
