Close; 421 degrees F wet and 594 degrees dry boiling point. I hear they (Motul)have even better stuff out now.

I use the RBF, just because of the availability and cost of the castrol.

I have a co-worker buddy who is a regional distributor for Motul and he gives me all the latest & greatest news of the new products coming out. Only problem is that he only deals with automotive product and not the motorcycle stuff. Parts Unlimited has the Monopoly on the bike stuff.

Update: Fired the bike up with the radiator & coolant installed. It ran but smoked for a while until it warmed up. A lot of moisture from the exhaust; thought it was a blown head gasket or worse. It cleared up and no bubbles in the radiator so I think it was all the water soaked up in the catalytic converter when I washed out the exhaust. The bike is bone stock right now except for a K&N & jumper mod. I have the stock exhaust on it too. Just wanted it quiet so I could hear every little abnormal noise/ sounds. Sound great warmed up but I hear some clutch rattle & cam chain noise when cold.

The FI light problem is solved! It was the POS deactuater/ adapter. I do't know what company made it but it is not designed properly. It is clocked way off and I can't possbly see how it ever worked. Here's a picure of the stock exhaust valve servo with the correct stop positions marked on the rotor. I'll make a stop myself when and if I replace the stock exhaust.

Rode the bike today! Man it's NICE! Handles & feels great. Started up with a lot of cam chain noise until I romped on it then shut off the throttle quickly. I think it had the same effect as whe you put it in gear and rock it forward. Also got a coolant leak from the radiator hose at the pump but that's easy to fix. Hopefully I'll be able tocomplete installing the mid & lower fairings this weekend and get it inspected & registered. It is nice!Man, I hate to get rid of this bike but need the cash to pay offsome bills. I'll post up some pics later.

BTW, I installed my dual headlight kit mod, Euro LED's,integrated turn signals in the taillight, Front Flush mount T/S's& the ECU jumper mod too. I have a Yosh and a Hindle Slip-On for it but not sure which one to install yet.
