found the culprit of the leak. apparently there was a small crack on that little guy, so its drying, and i'll apply plastic expoxy to it tonight and fixxer right up. Then engine ice tomorrow, then a ride up to cycle therapy and see what parts i can pick and choose from when i get the money.

NONE_too_SOFT · 06-10-2008, 07:15 PM

Thats pretty rough man. But at least the gear did its job and the bike isnt in too bad of shape.

Sorry for the bad luck, man. It seems like you have been down more than Paris Hilton lately. Stay safe. Don't want to see a good guy go down for good.

Don't do it, it won't work. Most epoxy won't hold a reservoir together, with the pressure and the composite of the tank you'll blow fluid after a wee bit of time. Ask me how I know....

uh huh. Well i already epoxy'd the hell out of it, it was the smallest little crack, how much pressure do those things build anyways? This expoxy i've used before, and its heavy duty stuff.

Im gonna run it tomorrow, but i'll keep a close eye on it. thx for the heads up and all the great info zoomy.

Gear doesn't look too bad, at least I know now that my leathers have been tested!
