Great Commuter Bike

By Patrick Williams(Owner), Feb. 20, 2010

Been riding for over 35 years, when gas prices went over $4/gal, I got a Ninja 500 to commute to work. Enough power to cruise hwy speeds all day, cheap price and insurance. Not all bent like a rocket bike, but not laid back like a cruiser. Old style but that what I needed for a commuter bike.

I have a ninja 500R 2003. This winter I replaced the thermoswitch on the radiator because the fan wasn't working. Now it start but almost when the temperature gage is in the red...at 3/4. Before it was below the half. I tried to remove air from the radiator but I'm not able to reach a normal temperature because the coolant leak when the cap is off...The coolant in the reservor is between the two lines. Yesterday after my ride I saw some slide of what I think is coolant from the radiator cap...and during my ride I smell coolant when I was riding faster on the highway and I slow down and the smell go away...

keep waiting for more updates ....thank you !
