Our 04 Patrol is doing the same and loosing coolant even though the temp gauge never moved off normal . I removed the radiator cap to find bubbles in the coolant and it started overflowing the coolant with cold engine running meaning either head or gasket failure making the Patrol undriveable as it burst the plastic top radiator tank after a short drive on the open road ... Replacement head costs around 2K plus gaskets and other bits needed if I do the work myself but funds are very scarce . Exchange long engine costs around 6K plus if I fit it myself . I see many Patrols with the same problem for sale on the net.

Our 20 year old Patrol just split the top plastic tank off the core so I have bought an A/T Aluminium rad off ebay for $245 delivered while Aluminium manual gearbox rads are $215 delivered . Plastic tank rads can be bought for as little as $170 delivered off fleabay . Let the fun and games begin . Hopefully it hasn't cracked the head or done the head gasket. I'm not keen on plastic tanks as I have had many fail on different cars in the past .

Swapping the overengineered aluminium radiator to the stock one,nice job

how much did it end up costing?

Do you have to remove the tire to do this?

Thank you very much for your video it helped me a lot you not only show how to fix it but show how the jack worked very well lifting the your motorcycle good job bro I give you a big 10 👏👊

Once you fill it with oil, Does it not need to drain out to the grommets height. If not, Why did they not have a sealing screw. I filled mine while the jack was level and used a syringe to do it.

Thanks mate

So Aaron how's the fridge been up til now? Cheers 🍻

Where can I get a seal kit for this jack? I can't locate one. Thanks.

Very informative video, I plan to do the same to my DR650.

How did you know how much of an adjustment to do on the choke cable? You just back it out and tightened it down? How do you know of its fully engaging and going fully back in?

Cheers for the look ..old Autobarn has it on sale again, might pick one up.. tiny!

Hi mate was it the head gasket if you can remember

Thanks for that my next job on the Dr ill change spring and wheel bearings on back end while I'm there. Good detail I'll watch again as I'm doing it for sure

That’s a neat idea mate. I will have to look at doing something similar with my 270 awning. Cheers Trav.

Good job Aaron the original poles are quite pricey . Bet ya don’t go back to the roll out after having a freestanding 270 😀

Another great video, Aaron👍

Subbed mate and thumbed great aussie review look forward to more ya posts

Great video just a new mic woulda sorted ya ,but i totaly get it today prices on gear like fridges as well no brainer just upgrade not like in old days options were parts , and not many options now days,,, so much better value and features great stuff thanks for posting.....

The 2019 fires proved beyond doubt that locking it and leaving it does not work. Funny hey. Open access is encouraged in some states...

Spot on foxy 👍

Well said.

Getting better each time mate.

Awesome Aaron 😀 Happy 50th Sam . 👍🍻

Awesome mate, love the Benny Hill tent set up😅. The audio was nearly perfect. You just need the sound of a KTM, not a DR😅

Hi, mate, your videos are getting so much better. Shame, the dramatic ending wasn't in this 😂

What a great ride Aaron. Plenty of mud and dust in the whiskers as it should be. 👍

I always cringe watching this one mate. Properly not a great memory hey. Are you still having issues with it on your rides these days ?

Looked like a great ride mate. great scenery too. Cheers Trav

Some serious slop there! Was that Cuneens Gap trail along the way?

That sounded pretty bad foxy! How long ago did that happen?..

For that spring on the side of the jack I bought mine from harbor freight best way that I have found the take off that really long spring is as grab it from the top and just pull the hell outta it and it'll come off and it won't sling and it won't bust you in the balls

KTM AMBULANCE 😂😂😂 Top clip foxy 🤙🏻

Yeah you must owe that bloke in the red jacket a beer for all the footage he gave you on the second half of that ride 😂😂 🍻

jezzz hope your mate is ok lucky he didnt slip off the side it looks deep there.

Good too see you stayed upright this time foxy 😂 Shame about old mate though… The start of that river crossing was slippery as. Very surprised more didn’t come off.

great video thanks mate i bought a new dr650 2 years ago dont laugh it hasnt been riden yet wonder if may be i should check mine. ive heard the same thing with these 650s they scabby with the grease

Done some heat shrink would help as well

Sounds like ur hand held is damaged

Thanks for the sub back mate i appreciate it heaps. I love riding my dr but listening to the 2 stroke sounds so much fun makes me want a second bike. Are you running stock gearing.

Looking forward to watching it on the plane trip home mate Cheers Trav.

They go better when they’re upright foxy 😂 Good clip mate 🤙🏻

Nice editing azza 🎉

Small hiking tent and decent self inflating mattress. Less than half the size and weight. I've tried both. Swags are a pain the arse.

The DR650 and you did well riding those tracks mate 😁👍 sucks 1st gear is soooo darn long compared to dirt bikes 😥 keep well and stay safe-ish Sir 😉🍺

Nice

Another great video Foxy, looks like I missed a great weekend away 👍.

I was looking forward to watching the vid when I got home mate and it didn’t disappoint. Cheers Trav.

well done mate 😁👌 that crash at the end 😛😬 came close to doing that more than once myself 🤔👍 sooo far sooo good 😂🤣 hear yah on the gopro no sound thing , happens to me quite often 😥🤨 keep well mate and ride safe-ish 😉🍺
