Re: NC29 half empty radiator. HELP !
found a leak at a 'T joint' on the left side of the bike. its a small hose connecting from the engines coolant pipe to the radiator. Anyone knows whats this hose is for ?
there is a consistent drip of coolant coming from it during idling.
not sure if this small amount of the drip is enough to cause so much problem, and for it to lose that much coolant in that amount of time...advice ?

Re: NC29 half empty radiator. HELP !
Those small hoses allow coolant to circulate before the engine’s warm and the thermostat opens. They get quite brittle with age. If you can afford it get a full samco set. Or otherwise take a piece to a bike shop to get a replacement piece the same size.
