St1300 coolant reservoir.
« on: September 01, 2023, 07:20:06 PM »
Having just removed all my plastics in my ST1300p noticed that my coolant reservoir has fracture lines in the plastic body. Thinking of replacing while the plastics are off and completing a coolant flush at the same time. Anyone know where the best place to purchase one from. Brand new ex Brisbane is $107. Seems expensive but just wanting to check is this the best option.
Cheers
In Advance

Any secondhand ones you buy are going to be at least 10 years old.  Plastic doesn't age well.  Save having to do it again before very long by putting in a new one.
For the modern man who lives in the city, riding a bike might be one of the only ways to escape the humdrum monotony. To take off and ride. To be both at one with nature and one with the bike. To feel masculine. Adam Piggott

You are exactly wright Bill. Pulling off the plastics is not fun and want to get another 10 years out of the 13.
