I went to glamis last weekend and my bike kept overheating. Their are no leaks in the radiator, externally the head and base gasket look good. The impeller is spinning like it should. The only part of the cooling system that looks bad is the radiator. About 50% of the little baffles are bent over. Could this alone be causing my bike to overheat after about 5min of riding?
I realized I rode it hard for about 20min with almost no water in the radiator before I noticed it. Is it likely I jacked up my top end? It still runs OK, and starts first kick, but was definitely down on power?
Imp racing in the Ellsinore Grand Prix this weekend and need to figure it out fast. I will straighten out all the little fins and hopefully that is it, and hopefully there is no perminate damage!
