playboy Posted April 17, 2012 Share #1 Posted April 17, 2012 As i was cleaning the bike today I pulled out a very small hose that is connected to the water pump but was not connected to anything on the other end. It's shown on page 5-14 of the manual connected to the pump is this a weep hole for the seal or should it be connected somewhere else. I just put it back down beside the frame where it was.

allwx Posted April 17, 2012 Share #3 Posted April 17, 2012 Probably you are seeing the drain line from the weep hole that is in the outer water pump housing. Somebody was commenting on this a couple of weeks ago, and had posted a pic of it. You can probably find it, and verify that that is what you're seeing. But I'm pretty sure it is. The hose was added on later models. My 97 RSTD didn't have a hose on the weep hole, and it dribbled coolant pretty regularly. I think that's why they put the hose on there, to keep the dribbling out of sight and out of mind... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
