I am currently in the process of putting together a dirt drag bike.I have a 500 honda frame with a 2004 600 suzuki gsxr motor in it. Pretty sick. I have raced it but it gets hot quick. I had a temperture gauge on it but im going for the radiator now. I was wondering if anyone knows a sight that explains were the hoses go. there is more hoses than just a inner an outer I just want to make sure I got them right. Thanks for any input.

 

the lower hose goes to the water pump, from the water pump to the water inlet on the back of the motor.

the upper hose goes from the rad to the thermostat housing

the small fitting under the filler goes to the rad overflow bottle (which must be vented at the top)

well, here's a pic... it's easier that way

 

btw, the rad fan switch is a GROUNDING switch. don't run any + voltage thru it, or as soon as you come to temp, you'll short the electrical system.

 

Thanks for the help yo. And thanks for the tip on the fan cause im hooking that up to a toggle switch.

 

just ground one side of the toggle switch, and hook the other side of the switch to the wire coming off the temp sensor on the radiator.

 

Two quick questions does anyone know what the two hoses that go to the thing right beside the oil filter are for they arent connected two the filter just beside it. And who know where the cheapest power commanders are.

 

got a pic? i don't have a gixxer in front of me... kinda hard to remember what goes there.
