I-AM-THOR

There was a fuel switch under the seat on reserve. Switched to on but still only fires up for a second and turns off.

Recently got a hornet and he fired it up no probs. it stopped working so I thought it was the battery dos he said it was goosed. Started up each time for a few days. Now it won't start. Replaced the battery. It fires up for a brief moment,chugs then cuts out. Shook the bike and it's got petrol in there. Thanks

If you had to choose which chain do you prefer? Monster is 55 Hardcore 69.99

Looking for a decent one but also one that doesn't break the bank.

What did you cut it with?

Hi, Does anyone know where I can get one from? I need one this weekend.its the socket with 4 teeth.

Hi all, Does anyone know if you can replace the oil pump without removing the engine?

What size test valve do i need? I cant find anything online or in the serice book gixer k7

Checked the oil and its a dark green/brown colour. During the flush there was very small bits in the liquid. Did a test on the thermostat and it seems fine, used YouTube to check. Went into dealer mode and it showed nothing is wrong. Tomorrow I will be replacing all the fuses and checking oil pump shaft and water pump.

Is it true that if my head gasket had gone it would continue to over heat oven on the motorway? Been doing a fair amount of research and this seems to happen to a few people. One person had to replace oil and water pump

So lets get this straight... the fan was not working, so you swapped the Ignition fuse for the fan fuse, then the Ignition stopped working and the fan started working... have i got that right?? How much more coolant do I need? Put in 1 litre. Yes, the pic shows it needs a 10 but when I tried it, all it would do is the lights would flash dim. Put in the spare 15 and it worked fine. All the fuses are fine, no dead ones

240-250 °f, didn't fill the tank enough with coolant only got a 1 litre. Weird when I checked the fuses they were in the wrong order, fan went mental but ignition wouldn't work unless I used a 15 instead of a 10. Engine was already warm and even with a working fan temps were still going up.

Tested the bike and the fan didn't kick in. The coolant bottle was bubbling like a kettle. Checked exhaust and it wasn't smoking. About to check fuses and finish the flush.

Not yet, off to asda in a min to get some.

Standing. Its fine when I'm riding cos the air cools it down but once its stood or not moving as fast temps go high. Maybe a little back story is needed, I had an oil leak on the bike and rode it slowly for a mile or two. Got it checked over and the bike shop said everything was ok. About a week later bike starts overheating and a possible loss of power, some said maybe it was me cos it was a new to me bike. Took the bike back and they didn't really know what was wrong, he said its possible iv blown my gasket but he didn't know 100% and would cost a lot to find out why. Told me to manage the heat or change the engine. So I managed the heat by only taking her on the motorway. Overheated twice cos I was getting some bits and got stuck in traffic.

I will do that and check everything that been said and report back

Maybe I'm wrong with the °f then, I will check in the morning as it has no spark plugs in atm. When I switched it on it was on °f. I think when it leaked it was on 240/250. Red light would come on and the temp gauge would flash. It would leak out of the front near the rad. There is a lot of heat from the rad, not sure on the fan, I will fire it up in the morning.it got so hot upfront that it melted my rec/reg wires. Coolant isn't over filled, what was weird was bike had plenty of coolant one min and the next main it was gone. Topped it up and it went down quickish. Left the bike for a week and when I went to fill it the coolant was back.

Think Its °f if that makes a difference? Iv had it higher than 180, its never cut out but if hit high enough it spits out coolant. Its only ever happened twice.

It gets so hot the red light kicks in. Maybe something like 180

Im not too sure, it gets really hot.

Thanks. That's one good thing at least. Just gotta find why its over heating and leaking oil.

Seems simple enough. Just pics and numbers, instructions on which to remove.

Manual says Standard 242 psi Limit 148 psi Difference 28 psi Mine was hitting between 185-190. Is this bad?
