Had the same problem. I replaced the harness. My cause was
corrosion in the sockets.

I've been using Amsoil synthetic in the GTS for years, I just switched over to Royal
Purple 15w40
synthetic.Have any list members used this product or heard anything about it ?
On mine GTS the left fan gives more hot air at the fairing outlet than the
right fan.
So maybe the hot air is bouncing against te frame somewhere, the both sides
of the bike are not identical.

It does contain a corrosion inhibitor, I asked.

Five-Time Motorcycle Champ Dunlop Killed in Crash

TALLINN, Estonia (July 2) -- Five-time motorcycle world champion Joey Dunlop,
honored by Buckingham Palace for his humanitarian work, was killed in a road
race Sunday when his bike skidded in heavy rain and hit a tree.

That's good info to have. As usual, this stuff happens to me when I'm in a
hurry. I usually react before thinking about it when I rushed. I did put
in a new battery in my GTS. Cost of $76.00. When I replaced the battery,
I noticed the terminals were loose, so that could be the proble
Actually, plain water is the best cooling. Problem is it boils and freezes.
Water Wetter will help maybe a little, but not much. It doesn't help your
system resist corrosion nor does it provide any freezing protection. It might
help prevent some boil over better than water. For street use, I'd
Ok now guys don't get fluffy on me just yet. My understanding of "water
wetter" is its supposed to help transfer more heat to the radiator by
breaking down the surface tension of the water/coolant. I was also given
the impression from the earlier literature on the stuff that it is also

Is Honda still in business?
Perhaps it's not a problem for the GTS or Yamahas, but there are heavily
documented issues regarding several Honda motorcycles that had pump failures
on automotive antifreeze. Gold Wings in particularly are frequently affected.
It's enough of a problem that I would use motorcycle anti-freeze in

There is virtually no reason to use Water Wetter (that is the brand name) on
