I'm sure I'll be here. Nothing else to do. Just heading to my cousin's place on Sunday morning. Maybe up to Miami on Monday. [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-happy.gif[/img]

YOU CANT RESIST!!!!!!!!!!

Miami is the last ride for my quad. [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-sad.gif[/img] Ive gotta send it to the dealer to have them look into the corrosion problem i heard about. And NO not Clawson. [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-wink.gif[/img]

 

[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-shocked.gif[/img] Getting some rust? Mine has a little where I've done some sliding...

I'd like to get the frame powdercoated, but need to figure out how to deal with VIN issues when you do it.

No this is much worse than rust. This could cause the motor to go by-by... Or at least fill the oil with coolant..
The thread is over in the Zuki section under Z400 corrosion. This IS a problem with ALL 05-06 Z400s.. With no fix available.. [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-sad.gif[/img]

Yup. Ive been looking and havent found anyone that hasnt found any corrosion. Even brand new bikes are corroded. [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-sad.gif[/img]
Suzuki isnt even saying there is a problem.

 

I am a diesel mechanic. We have to put a coolant additive in all antifreeze to prevent corrocion and Cavitation. In a diesel engine the combustion gasses mixed with the antifreeze turn into a sorta acid, so the additive prevents this. Someone needs to do a test with one of these new quads and a NAPA coolant additive and see if it fixes the prob, a bottle is only a couple bucks, and for a quad 1 bottle should be good for the life of the engine! It's a thought!

 

Different coolents ARE preventing/slowing this problem BUT, with the quads coming straight from suzuki with regular coolent..... What do we do? Some/most are already corroded from the dealer!!!
Ive never added coolent to mine or changed it so if there is corrosion its their fault.




Annnnnddddd im SURE mines corroded since i can SEE black chunks floating in the bottom of my coolent resevior.
[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-disgusted.gif[/img] A bad sign from what ive heard. [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-mad.gif[/img]
