I just purchased a clean 06 R6R with only 2.2k miles on it.
1 - There is a coolant leak coming from between the water pump and the engine block. From what I have read a weep hole is what it will leak out of to stop it from entering another chamber that could cause complications.
With this problem can it still be ridden so long as I maintaining coolant levels? or can this lead to more serious problems down the road?
2 - I took the bike to my mechanic to do a quick safety inspection and he mentioned that the cam chain tensioner sounded a bit rough but nothing devastating. He assumes that the bike may have been used on the track and run hard for these 2k miles.
With mileage like this do you think it will last? it hasn't had any start up problems yet.
3 - The from right radiator fan has yet to activate while riding, the left fan has come on every time I get near 200 farenheit. Someone mentioned that it will only activate once it gets to a certain temp. but I would think that near 200 would do it.
Any ideas?
Thanks in advance to anyone that responds.
