SonOfSand Posted March 25, 2009 Report Share Posted March 25, 2009 Hi, what does everyone use to keep their coolant overflow reservoir in place when running K&N pods? Is there some type of kit or adapter? Thanks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bansh-eman Posted March 25, 2009 Report Share Posted March 25, 2009 you can get rid of it. You dont need it. There are some folk that for some reason think that the banshee has the capacity to pull from the res. it doesnt. I as well a many others have ran without it for years. no issues. If your bike is overheating, the res isnt going to fix that. You have other issues you need to address. just run the over flow tube down your frame and dump it under your bike. Keep your eye in the water level and make sure its not boiling over. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sandman81 Posted March 25, 2009 Report Share Posted March 25, 2009 same here i relocated mine to craigslist hahahahahaha. run the over flow tube right above the exhaust, so when it gets hot you'll see vapor. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

305Shee Posted March 25, 2009 Report Share Posted March 25, 2009 I flushed my Radiator yesterday and there wasn't to much water in it...looked at my reservoir and it was at the same level so i guess this does prove the theory that it does nothing.

AWR Posted March 25, 2009 Report Share Posted March 25, 2009 Hi, what does everyone use to keep their coolant overflow reservoir in place when running K&N pods? Is there some type of kit or adapter? Thanks. buy a garbage can adapter and mount it in there-routing your overflow hose like sandman81 said lets you know if you are getting hot(works great) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AWR Posted March 25, 2009 Report Share Posted March 25, 2009 smash it with a BFH. BFH's are boring to use on soft plastic parts... but are awesome for carb and tv repair(i prefer a 12lb BFH) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What do i do with the hoses that come out of the Case and the Clutch Cover connected to the T what is the 3rd hose connected to that?

locogato11283 Posted March 26, 2009 Report Share Posted March 26, 2009 just run them downwards on the frame. use some zip ties. the two coming out of the cases are just vent tubes. run the line from the overflow bottle straight down.

Looks so much cleaner now without so many hoses running. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
