I haven't updated this thread recently, but short of taking the thermostat out to check, I'm convinced it's stuck open. Last week, I was out...
Hmmm. This leads me to believe the thermostat is in fact stuck open. :Cry:
That's a bit of a relief! Was not looking forward to changing that out again...
Forgive me, I searched! I have what I suspect is a stuck open thermostat on my 2003. All I've found for the 6th gen is mention of running too...
Sorry all, the bike is a 99 800 with about 31k on the clock. Also, I should have specified that the chain is totally spent and needs to be...

I'm so excited right now, I'm ecstatic and grinning from ear to ear. Yep, I bought the bike. I was really impressed with the condition of the...
Thanks for the pics and the insight. If I can take the bike to the track, I'll be happy. I am not an expert class rider yet, so it won't be the...
So, just to clarify, 32k is the official valve adjustment window? If this isn't done, is it worth some money off the asking price? I'm very...
Well, it looks like the 'showing' got moved to tomorrow. Bummer, because I'm anxious. While talking the owner, I did find out that he knocked it...
