[QUOTE="gryphon68, post: 22673, member: 184"] Actually, running plain water in anything but an emergency is probably bad for your bike/car/truck. Distilled water+WaterWetter would be highly preferred over plain water for any type of track use. As far as the FJR's heat issues go, making your coolant more efficient is only going to INCREASE the amount of heat outside the engine that you need to deal with. That's why most of the 'heat fixes' are aimed an insulating and redirecting heat. Theoretically, to reduce an engines heat output (assuming basically unchanged air/fuel) you need to reduce internal friction and utilize heat repellant ceramic coatings that prevent combustion chamber from being transferred to the piston crown, cylinder head and valves.
