I have been following your trials and tribulations with the Blue one and have empathy .

I once owned a Suzuki GT750 Water Bottle with a 3 into 1 expansion chamber and it was a beast.

It developed an over heating problem so I replaced the radiator cap, still had the problem, then I set on to replace or inspect the following,

Thermostat, hoses, water pump , head gaskets, rings , you name it I tried it, it still went so I traded it in.

I told the dealer that it was dodgey and what I had done.

One thing I didn't do was inspect the nylon water pump drive gear and it had a crack that allowed the water pump shaft to rotate without turning the gear and therefore the water pump wasn't being driven.

What made it even worse was that this great bike ended up in my cousins possession and he trashed it.

If I had kept going I think I would have got it . I did 96,000 Klms on that bike and I always regret not having it.

Would cruise all day at 140-160 K's

Keep going mate,

You will get it .

That would be ridiculous, contrary to the laws of science and with no scientific proof at all, ever.







But if you were pushing pins into a model of a blue Firestorm, and a yellow one, that might have done it.......

I don't know, there's a pin in the back of the head, and the bikes have been giving him a headache...
