    PAIR valve issue on my work ride

    PAIR valve issue on my work ride

    Hi guys I'm hoping someone here can help me with my problem. A week ago my scoot started making a hell of a noise and i was thinking it was an exhaust issue. On looking at the exhaust all was fine and looking under the seat i see the PAIR valve had melted. I had tried looking for parts...

    Yamaha sucks

    Yamaha need to dump that inline 4 and go v4 like Honda and Ducati if they have done all they can with it. They have had plenty of time to try and extract more HP out of that engine. On a brighter note as mentioned Quartararo looks to have a big future in GP and i hope Yamaha are going to sign...

    Yamaha sucks

    You have to ask what Yamaha are up to with the moto GP bikes of Valentino and Maverick when we can have Fabio on a non works bike come third in Austria. Maybe Valentino is past it at 40yrs old although he is still a great rider but at his limit maybe? . Maverick has all the ability in the world...

I also checked the ABS sensors on both wheels, they looked clean but gave them a wipe down and put them back in place. Done two decent rides now...

    Two issues-Bugger

    Radiator was full RossKean and i can see coolant in the hose which connects to the thermostat housing. Coolant also came out after splitting the housing. I think i am making the right call replacing the themostat(which comes with the rubber seal) and the alloy thermostat housing as i'm not...

    Guys Shot here of the Alloy thermostat housing and corrosion at the bottom most part where leak was. Question....Wil this clean up ok or do i go new???. No..Me thinks for the sake of 30 bucks its better to throw a new one in there. Regards Gazza

    Two issues-Bugger

    Morning guys OK, Left panel off and it appears to have been leaking around the thermostat housing with traces of fluid at the base of the housing so next move will be to order new themostat as the casket is part of the housing and i might as well get a new cap and as Mihalis suggests check all...

    Thanks Mcatrophy.I changed the coolant about 3000km ago but just had the issues today so don't think they are related. Looks like possible fluid from around the cap area so may take off the LHS fairing and run up to temp and check. Cap maybe and or hose leak maybe??. Will also have a look at the...
