Coolant leak, and new marker lights

Tucker2.0 · 11-25-12, 08:51

So yup i got the ever frequent coolant leak now that its cold. from both ends of the vertical hose right behind the radiator. I tightened up the clamps and that all but eliminated the issue, im going to have to replace the clamps. The asshats who did my tune up stripped the phillips slot, so i was forced to find a 6mm socket and tighten it with two extensions.

On the other hand i added red marker lights to my bike, i was gonna go with white or blue because its an SE but the red lights are growing on me.

Looks nice.

What I did for my race bike was RTV all of my radiator hose ends, but for a street bike there may be a prettier method.
