Ordered a new water pump shaft, water impeller, impeller bearings, O ring (seal), retention clip, water pump cover gasket, and clutch cover seal.
I havent looked yet (im afraid too) but I think my water impeller o ring (seal) is or rather has failed. The last time I went out riding I checked my coolant level before we left and it was a little low. So I topped it off. Got home and check my coolant level again and it was low. Did some inquiring and was told to check my gear box oil. Well I havent yet. Im afraid too. But I orderd up that stuff. Gonna drain the oil, and pull the clutch cover this weekend. Get it cleaned up. Buy a few quarts of cheap oil to flush out what ever I cant get out. Hoping that the water impeller parts come in monday replace that stuff monday. And be ready for riding for memorial weekend.

Trav....those sticker there look cool
Good idea! I have never seen stickers there. I am waiting for a call. My old mechanic moved to CO. He has flown back for a wedding and is going to meet me this morning at his friend's garage to show me how to adjust my valves. Im going to take my iphone and record the procedure so hopefully I can confidently do it myself in the future. Only problem is I havent heard from him yet
Im worried the guys went out last night hitting strip clubs late and partied too hard. I hope he has his game on this morning and doesnt leave some important detail out, or blows me off all together
I should get some ones $ to put in the waist of his pants for helping me

I'd rather be doing flower arrangements or decorating.
what havent I done these last 2 days... Suspension font and rear of the RM250, pulled the motor in the 85 so the cases can get welded, serviced everything... replacing the 2fiddy sprocket with a 51 toother (up1) serviced the kaboom 125 and installed new grips (loaner bike).... did I mention I work 12 hr days too?
the 08 TE450 got new shoes front and rear. I did a 908RR that I have had for a while on the front. I am now part of the rear trials tire group. Hope I like it. Still waiting for my forks to be back so I can take it for a spin. Oh yah, I put a new 13T up front. After 5,500 miles the stock one was looking a little fishy.
