Moderator Cynic Posted March 15, 2014 Moderator Share Posted March 15, 2014 I guess you had the cap off? Turning the bike off was actually a bad thing, you should have ridden it round the block then turned it off so the coolant can circulate and protect the motor. Did the electric fan not start........? Oh, do an introduction in the new members area. This is moving to the workshop.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Luis Posted March 18, 2014 Author Share Posted March 18, 2014 The cap was on,so it wasn't the cause.My mate told me that I should check if thermostat is working properly.Can't tell if fans worked cause I was cleaning my 125 couple of metres away and I had the engin running,so couldn't hear even if the fans were working.Thanks for your opinion and will to help anywayCynic.I appreciate that.
