Thumbs down Major coolant loss!

The other day, after a long ride I ended up with the coolant leaking from the bike, in the middle of Lincoln High Street!

Care off ABR website:
http://www.adventurebikerider.com/fo...t-leakage.html
( Had to do it this way for I could not simply up-load the pic alone!!???? )

It truns out that the reason for this leakage was that the jubilee-clip from the large pipe, pictured in link above, had come lose

After four years ownership and 23,000 miles it, strangely, decided to come undone, so, the moral of this story, just double-check your pipes, clips etc

You'll be able to unpload pics...I use www.tinypic.com

Set up a user account ..upload pics e.g. from you desktop and then copy and paste (to here)the serial number from the pic within Tinypic.

It must be a Tenere thing. I checked all my coolant hose clamps a couple of weeks ago, and they were all in need of tightening.

In hindsight, perhaps I should've posted soemthing, but I figured it was just my bike...

On the strength of this thread.......did the same and a few could be tightened up a couple of turns.....

Thanks...... kicking myself for not doing normal checking....I do it on my off road moto(never had a hose come off)...why not road moto?....ho hum... have to step it up a notch and approach the XTZ with the same mind set lol...

I think the guys on the production line were a bit limp-wristed; didn't have the strength to tighten jubilee clips, push home regulator connections or operate a grease gun!
