crf450 owners...
Well, I'm back from the dunes and I must say that my new crf450 hybrid did very well. Getting to know the kickstart sequence was a learning experience....even more fun when it gets hot. Anyway, I did have a tiny bit of seepage from the front of the motor where the cylinder meets the head...the head gasket. I noticed after a few hours riding that I had maybe 6-8 drips down the front, maybe 1 inch long. It was purple and I determined it was my coolant...Engine Ice.
Are these known for doing that? It seems like all motors seep a tiny bit from here and there so I'm just curious if I should put a new haed gasket on? I'm told this 02 motor has never been apart.
Thanks.
