did you get the leak fixed?
I know its been a while but i think we made a discovery! I bought a pressure tester and pumped the system up to about 20lbs cold, and just let it...
No I haven't worked on it in quite some time, pretty frustrated with the whole thing. I really don't want to pull the heads until I have proof...
The cold left side rad isn't an issue any longer. It was just cold because it was so low on coolant.
Replaced overflow hose, same symptoms.
Coolant system holds pressure... for weeks with the bike off. I have also pressure tested at the local dealer. Air would not be sucked in, it...
wildstang, I'll Give it a try. Here are the plugs, they were loose enough i could just about get them out with just the extension and...
I have a Givi windscreen and it just moved the air straight into my face. It's actually worse than the lower stock windscreen where you're pretty...
For some reason I stopped receiving notifications on this post so I'm just now seeing this. Thanks for the reply, I'll give it a try. I just...

Local Honda dealer cant explain it either, what a waste of money. I am convinced the system is getting fresh air in. There was still pressure...
If there is air in the cooling system it will not pull coolant back in. Air compresses unlike fluids.
Wonder if it contributes to the issue people have getting the air out after refilling. I'm riding it around now with a set of hemostats clamped on...
No, but I did pull it out and test it. 1mm at 190 and 8 mm at 205
I can buy that, but why does it terminate in the front of the radiator. The flow of the coolant would prevent that air from ever leaving the...
The coolant level in the reserve tank increases with every ride. Can anyone tell me why an air bleed hose would be placed in this location?...
No contamination in the oil. A temp related leak in the head gasket is why i purchased the combustion leak detector. I did allow the bike to run...
I agree. Every inch of rubber has been checked. If pressure is the issue why doesn't it boil when idling in the garage? Temp rises to 220 with...
I've ruled overflow issues out. Coolant is boiling inside the engine which is causing excess coolant to flow to the reservoir. It is not just your...
2004 VFR800 4,000 miles I purchased the bike with 1,400 miles. The previous owner had one receipt for an overheating problem. Shop pressure...
