Anyone ever had a water pump leak into engine
« on: January 23, 2015, 11:42:05 PM »
Anyone ever had a water pump leak into engine, heard some newer dirtbikes can do this. Wondered if a Busa will do same and make chocolate milk out of the oil.

Busa has a double seal and a weep hole to let out the water if the seal leaks.  Core plugs in the head leaking is another story...
Any day on a motorcycle like this that ends just needing parts and labor is a good day.

Looking at the core plugs across the top of the head, one was a bit suspect as I took a drift to all to check seating and it was only one that moved.
