Re: Radiator Fan ?

i have a non etching acid wash for use with metals.. i just mix a bit with water and run a small electric pump through it. ill let it soak and run the solution through for a half hour or so. this stuff can take the hide off an elephant.

kinda rough on the hands if improperly handled.

Re: Radiator Fan ?

the airways are all unblocked and its been cleaned well in and out. i can go a good amount of time in traffic without any overheating problems but its the quick jump between lights which are only 200 yards apart and then sitting for 5 to 10 minutes while all the tourists wander aimlessly in the road...

Re: the MK1 and i are bonding

we rode to work today, it was amazing... the guy at the entry control point of the base had a big grin plastered across his face...

either he liked the crm a whole lot or he was amazed at how i managed to pack a full cubic meter of mud on the frame

(didnt have a chance to wash her last night)

Re: chugging ... ?

I've managed to get the MK1 pretty sorted, but when i let off the gas to just cruise at mid throttle, the whole bike chatters, and i get a Popping from exhaust. if i throttle up, it takes off like a bat out of hades and if i keep it at very low revs it runs just fine... but i cant get any mid range ...
