Hi
i have just got hold of a 1983 V65 and the grief i am having with it is unreal as i have only done 250 mile on her with a catalogue of things go wrong but this one has got me beat ?
Right on the right hand side of the main engine casing where the front and the back barrels meet you have a sensor well next to that you have were the collant system crosses the from right to left(the pipes you can take apart) where it comes out of the main casing on the right to meet the pipes it has blown/cracked....now i know old bikes have their problems but i have never seen this in all the years i have rode bikes (30yr+) now i have been told it could be a stress fracture but the bike hasnt even dont 30k miles and is in pretty good nick and that is where i am totally lost to as why ?? i have a picture if needed
