The K61 is the "Racer" type tire.  They make lots of different ones with various tread patterns.  I hate to hear that it slipped on you.  I use 'em on my scooters and love 'em to death - better than Michilen or Pirelli.  I haven't ridden in the rain lately though.

By the way, I found the original head for that cylinder when I was getting some parts out of my truck.  Want me to drop it in the mail someday?

Ciao,

~Josh

I hate to hear that it slipped on you.

..yeah, once was on a new sheets store parking lot...

..i chalked that up to new concrete finish, but the second was on th road, just after a good rain...

..just looking at the two tire pics, the avon has more corner tread...might be the key to that...

..heyy yeah!..drop it in!!..btw, do you remember th s9 running kinda hot?...water pump gets pretty hot to touch, even after say, 5 miles...

...my other nine runs much cooler...

Check for a bad thermostat/kinked hose/clogged radiator. If the pump is hot it usually means a restriction. Bad pump bearings will do it to

..well, i removed the thermostat, and, while doing so, saw that i got flow thru everything...

...filled the radiator, then started engine...used another cup of coolant after starting...


..josh rebuilt this pump not long ago, when he built th scoot...so i'm sure it's got flow...

..i can fill fluid flowing when i squeeze the hose going into the top of the radiator...

Is the cylinder base about the same temp. as the pump housing? It may just be the scoot.
If the pump is hotter you may still have a bad bearing. I don't think they are lubed. Maybe a sealed bearing would be best?

That would be MY guess. More mass = more friction. That's a new top end?
Maybe a couple old computer type fans on the back of the radiator pulling air...
