[QUOTE="04rider, post: 1359276, member: 88606"] 07 FJR 26k miles Completed a 70 mile ride yesterday and noticed something smelled hot once parked. Took the seat off, some tupperware off, but no visible sign of anything burning. No recent oil change/spillage, nothing smoldering on the muffler. Followed the odor to the water pump, put a screwdriver to listen and sounds fine but don't have another FJR to compare. No odd sounds from the bike, engine temp was normal on the ride and on the startup. Smell was again noticeable after warming bike up in the garage. IDK why the water pump would smell hot and not create some ungodly racket from a bearing. Suggestions? [/QUOTE]
