Overheating issue

<< < (4/4)

Langers:
108km round trip with a mixture of windy country roads, freeway and lumpy 3rd rate goat tracks covered with a patchwork of bitumen that makes up an increasing percentage of our non-urban road network here in SA.
No discernable issues, the Honda ran as all Hondas do (mostly), smoothly and reliably. I suspect there might be some hiccups if the fuel gauge level drops below 2 bars, possibly with cavitation so I might revisit the installation a bit later on - I've kept the plastic bucket and stainless steel for that purpose.
In summary, not a particularly difficult job, it cost $181 Aus and realistically would take 1 to 2 hours. The important bit is to get the fuel level down so there's nothing in the top tank. I got down to 57km left according to the dash readout and when I opened the bottom tank it seemed about 1/2 full. I'm guessing but I reckon if I got a service centre to do the job I'd be looking at say $350 including parts. I've printed out the detailed instructions written by a US ST owner which I can post if anyone wants a copy.
Cheers ... Mark
