Thread: Vortex Sprocket Rear help please..

Good! Now pay it forward and pass this knowledge on!

Ok, here's what I got. I pulled off the water pump and was wiping it off. As I'm looking at how it's built... I don't think your water pump can get coolant into the motor. The outside part is the pump... impeller and hoses leading into it. Then there is a hallow part which the shaft goes through but there is a hole in the bottom of the hallow part... Then the o-ring and into the motor it goes. The only way this would get...

Something pinched? Inspect all the wire looms. Might come down to removing the bodywork to find this issue. Something is shorting to cause it to blow right away. Start removing the parts that are connected to this circuit. No taillight, if it still blows then remove the tag lighting, then the cluster. Anything that is getting power from that... I would pull the bodywork first before doing anything... T

Maybe moisture got into something where it shouldn't be? Why did your battery died? Have you tried without all the light. Leaving off the aftermarket and stock light off? Is it still blowning fuse without the light?

yeah.. i did test it (same place that cleaned my injectors), i do have a manual but i dont have a test harnes to do most of the tests, AND im not getting any error codes... But thanks for the suggestions... (i know a lot of people dont do their reaserch first and just want other people to fix their issues, but i have done the basics, and reaserch, and am stumped... along with everyone else i know...)

I put the battery in today and she finally started up! I guess I was losing pressure at the leak at the banjo bolt. I only have the one washer in it still but it is not leaking. I am going to put another washer on today just to be sure it wont leak though. Thanks for all your help. I can finally ride after my bike not starting for almost 6 months.

During the winter time, I usually treat my bike to a little hot chocolate. It makes it smell a little sweet. Seriously though, i've never had any bikes smell funny. Is it sweet, sour, rotten? What exactly does it smell like?

proper torque on the capiper bolts is key ... get them to the right torque and i bet the issue disapears.

At idle/low rmps most of it goes towards keep the electrics running. At higher rpms it will start to slowly charge and maintain the battery.
