burning up

[andrewsw]

well this troll sure is annoying. I dearly regret providing some helpful information.


Make sure when you put the thermostat back in that the little hole in the edge points DOWN. the service manual is wrong about this. It must point DOWN. It can be difficult to get in there, but keep trying.

good luck.

plonk.

Oh PLEASEEEEEEE !!

  Will you all please settle down and get your thumbs out of your mouths, stop your bloody crying..

  Someone said something bitchy to me so I said something back, I didnt realise it was going to be school yard warfare afterwards

  My last post was meant as some sarcastic comic relief, so get some humour in your lifes, dont take everything so serious, shesh!!

violating my own plonk.

dude there was nothing bitchy in solman's post. your original post lacked vital information others needed to help you. and he apparently didn't know that the smaller B's were water cooled. therefore he thought you were misguided in your posting and attempted point it out. YOU are the one who got offensive. YOU then went on to mock him repeatedly and even went so far as to claim you were intentionally pissing people off in order to get a response to your ill-worded, insufficiently informed question. Now you are complaining that we are offended by your childish, and apparently intentionally provocative behavior. Instead of trying to cover your ass, why don't you apologise for your behavior so we can all move on. until then...

re-plonk.

Travellukie. See the thread on what a Twat is.

Holy Christ people.  Lighten up!  

I will say Travellukie, if you'd spent 5 minutes looking around here, you'd realize that outside of the 250/400 forums, 90% or so of the folks here are on the bigger Bandits which are completely different machines AND that there actually ARE 250 and 400 forums.

see what happens when you go away for a few days? the kids get all unruly and cause all kinds of mischief...

I think someONE here is perhaps not playing with a FULL DECK?  

We all may just wanna consider walking away from this one!

hi

i took my bike out on the weekend, its cold up here in the mountains and with in minutes my bike was cooking, it was really hot yet the fan did not come on, I know it does not click on until over 100degrees, so I thought it might be outta coolant, I hadnt checked all summer, so i assumed it was that. i rode into town and the bike was running like shit, gurgling and back firing.

I took the tank off and coolant levels where perfect. the radiator was the hottest part and down along the frame around it. I dont know much about this bike as its new for me and I cant find any specs on the internet about them.

Can some one tell me if these bikes have a water pump or a temperture valve ( not a tempurture light on the dash) but a valve and valve gasket that can be replaced??. Also next to where you fill up the radiator, to the left of the cap was a metal componant that had hoses coming out of it - is this the water pump?? could this be my problem, should i try replacing this ?? could this be stopping the water from circulating through the engine ?? does anyone have any ideas to offer me ??

thanks

If you're still looking for an answer, try posting this in the 250/400 section - or at least give some more info on the bike you ride. The 250/400 share a lot in common with each other, but not so much with the air/oil cooled 600/650/750/1200 bikes.

As for the rest of you, you could have cut the guy a little slack instead of whipping a dead horse.
