Title: Over heating
Post by: Hanno on December 04, 2012, 03:26:17 PM
 >:( On a trip to St.Lawerence from Townsville my ST over heated, the temp guage was out but the fan burnt out, nearly melted the bike! Air temp on the road was about 40C which did not help! Oh, and I was nearly collected by a semi with horse at Koumali, it tried to overtake me on the inside of a one lane highway!

I have been dealing with Bernie since 1974 and have bought at least 12 bikes from him.

Excellent! Great to hear, didn't know you knew him, we have been working behind the scenes with rising sun to get OzSTOC members a discount structure there  :thumb
