.. it can also be your water pump seal leaking... BTDT... and if ya replace it,
do what Carl told me, epoxy the new seal in place before water pump install and it will
never slip again.... put the seal flush with the output, nice and flat,
no angle, nice and comfortable... good to go.....

Asphalt, the final frontier; these are the treks of the Kawasaki Voyager; its continuing mission to explore strange new roads, to seek out new sites, new bed & breakfasts, to boldly ride where no one has ridden before.
