Went to try one more time, started it up, kept pumping on the radiator hose hoping it's get something working, Never happened, Blipped the throttle some and it didn't do shit. So I was like fuck it i'll let it idle until the radiator fan comes on, Temperature on the cluster shows 225 degrees, Than all of a sudden the red engine light comes on and the cluster starts flashing 270 degrees coolant starts moving, and fan comes on, But than I killed the motor because 270 is retarded hot, Coolant stopped moving cause motor was off, Fan stayed on and it's cooling it right now. Idk what the hell causes something like that.

Wow! That's crazy.. maybe the ecu is bad?? That would be a good question for the cbr forums! I'm sure one of them knows.

I put a thermometer in the coolant while it was running and it was actually 190~ degrees, cluster showed 193, So cluster must be accurate. That's the 2nd time this bike hit 270 degrees while I owned it, Suprised this pos didnt blow a headgasket yet

I already changed the thermostat, The guy didn't call me back until I already took the air box and stuff off, So I thought I'd do the guy a favor and just install the thermostat. than it all just went to shit.

If it's not raining when daylight rolls around I'm gonna snap some pics of the camaro and give him an offer.

If he'll trade for my camaro and $1500 cash on my end I may go for it, I still haven't looked at it so I don't know if it's in good shape but if he went for it and it was decent I'll have some extra cash to work with.

I'm just gonna assume he sold it and not waste anyones time. :lol:

To be honest, Even if it is easier to get I'd rather hold out and buy a better one, The silver and red is growing on me, I like how the first person view is of the silver tank.

I saw a dude in a tank top and jeans and another without a shirt entirely 2 days ago...

I count the motorcycles I see when I go anywhere, Up to 43 in the last 2 months and only 2 have been wearing gear.

This guy keeps bulls***ting with me and i'm starting to just say f*** it and forget about this guy, First time he actually looked at it, He siad he was on the way with a truck and trailer, When he got here he was driving a kia, Than he say he's going to bring a truck tomorrow, Later in the day he calls and says he was busy all day and he was to tired to come get it and he'll come tomorrow (Today), Today he says he'll be here around the time he was 2 days ago, 6-6:30 or so. at 6:45 he calls me sayin his cuz makin him pay to much to borrow his truck and he wasn't gonna pay that much, He was going to try to borrow another truck and call me back in 15 mins, he never called back so i texted him just like what's your cuz chargin you to drive his truck I'll give you $50 off the bike to use to get the truck (If he didn't do that than I was just going to say f*** it he must not want the bike) But than he replied "Ok" and never said anything since. So Idk wtf he's doing but it's a bunch of bs. He wanted me to hold the bike for him etc and than he does all this bs


Also I just rode the bike to see if it would work correctly, Rode it around, Ran 165-180 the whole time i'm moving, But goes up as soon as I stop obviously. Drove it back home and let it idle see if fan would work. Didn't, So from now on if he doesn't buy this bike I'm just going to have to ride it and I just won't stop... Lol. I'm just going to have to be that asshole that goes around all the traffic etc
