Hey guys, I'm wondering if anyone else is noticing coolant consumption, but no signs of BHG. My bike has never ran hot, but I have to refill my coolant reservoir every couple weeks.
Hey so I don't normally post and I know this could/should go in the technical forum, but I think this one is important. Many of you have notice by now that the RC390 is not, actually, Ready-To-Race. In fact it's not even ready for particularly hot weather. There are three problems that I had...
Hello all.
So Ive had my 2015 RC390 for a few weeks now.
I bought it second hand with 30K Km's on the clock.
When I bought it the previous owner told me that it got hot and cut out, I decided to go ahead and purchase it with this issue.
The first thing I did was pull the water pump housing...

Do you measure...

So it finally happened to me, the OEM fan has failed on my bike and it sounded like a baby seal dying during the process. Now that my bike is over heating I need to replace the fan (that I could do under warrantee) with something. Everyone has said that the SPAL 5.2 Inch Puller Fan is the way to...
Ok, so the debate has been does the heat from the exhaust affect the rear shock.
I needed to check my rider sag anyway so i decided to do a before and after. w my trusty 12 yr old assistant (my son) on the measuring tape heres the results.
Now, let me start by saying i weigh 185lbs. I had...
The other day as I was wiping road grime off my rear shock after a good ride, I damned near burnt my hand on the stock suitcase of a muffler. That got me thinking, the rear shock is nearly on top of the muffler and all the heat coming off has to go somewhere! I felt the spring and it was hot as...
