Radiator overflow hose.

Post by bobhenry999 »

Guys,

On a 1976 750A, where should I route the radiator overflow hose to as I`m unsure of how to run it down to beneath the bike.

IIRC, it runs along the top tube and then down past the battery box to emerge below/behind the transmission and swingarm.

I want to say that it goes between the swingam and rear of the engine/transmission. But to one side of the wheel. Try not to point the overflow at the rear tire. Gycol is really splippery stuff.

Teazer, is splippery slippier than slippery??? You can't make a mistake on here mate :roll: :lol:
Look, my paintwork hasn't got "Fish scales" :x they're "Dragon scales" right!!! However, after some thought, I will accept "Black Marlin" or "Swordfish", but definitely not "Haddock" or "Cod".
