grogsym Posted February 17, 2017 Share Posted February 17, 2017 Hi all, A quick thread to note that at 9k miles and almost 2 years old my Tracer (FJ) has had a 'catastrophic' failure of the water pump housing. The garage said I was very lucky to arrive upright and it is the worst they have seen from 'a few Tracers that have had the same issue'. It's a warranty fix but only just, another 2 weeks and I will be out of warranty. This occurred very quickly after a very short ride - bike was fine the last time I was out, brought it to work yesterday (1.5 miles), parked up and it started pissing coolant all over the exhaust and oil filter. I moved the hose retaining clip on the hose directly above the pump which reduced the flow to a few drips, which was long enough to go the 1 mile through the city to drop it at the garage. Parts are on order, will hopefully have the bike back on Tuesday. Fun times! Greg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

brunofranco Posted February 18, 2017 Share Posted February 18, 2017 It's a problem already detected like the rearshock and the seat plastics? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
