Just doing some routine maintenance and thought I'd take the radiator cap off to have nose. Now I've never changed coolant before or even looked at it so I'm just wondering if this looks ok?
Seems really full, especially seeing as it's on the side stand in this pic?
Also it's a weird yellowy watery substance. Thought coolant was either blue or green?
What do you guys think?
I am in doubt, many items from which to chose and no experience for that.
I own a 5DM4, so a '99 model and I would like to put a euro vehicle socket on; using especially for charging the camera (I want to use a Gitup Git2 as a dashcam) and, sometimes, for charging the phone or a GPS.
For those you use, could you please guide me to buy something that has a good price/quality ratio?
Not sure if it's been covered here but I understand from another forum that vehicles, including bikes, will shortly require an emissions sticker for entry to Paris Lyon and Grenoble! Not got all the details but RAC website assists.
Just a heads up for those traveling abroad ?
last night I was out ridding and approaching a green light at about 30mph when out of nowhere 4 people ran out into the road hoping to cross, I had to swerve to avoid them but sadly lost control and came off. I've managed to escape with just a fractured wrist, however the bike is a bit beat up, both mirrors and right side indicator are loose, front fairing is cracked and scratched, exhaust completely fell off and bent, and lastly the right hand side engine shell cracked and allowed all the oil out.
As you can imagine I'm gutted and heartbroken, I love this bike with all I have, and all I want to know is if it is fixable, I know mirrors, indicators, fairings and exhaust all are but I'm so worried about any potential other damage caused by cracking the engine shell, at the moment I just can see there's no oil left in the engine.
I'm thinking either a FB style like button on comments would be cool to just show that you find something funny or agree with it without having to post a pointless comment?
Or another idea from other forums I use is a kudos button so if somebody helps you out or gives you some good info you can give them kudos as like a little thank you. Each member then has a number of kudos on their profile which then show newer/other members which ones of you are worth listening too and which of us to ignore haha
Just an idea, I'm not computer expert so not sure how feasible it is ??
So, the copper gasket rings I've been supplied are round in section, whereas the ones which have come out are flat. Also the new ones are about 2mm smaller in diameter.
