Bought a non runner in Vancouver

So bike is eating ****loads of coolant through the combustion chamber. :mad:

Went for quick rip the other night and had the temp light come on. Coolant level was very low. Topped it up and turned the bike over, pushed all sorts of steam/white out the back and now wont start. Nice puddle of coolant sitting on the floor today coming from the header/x-over pipe union. Guess this explains my low compression on hole #2. Going to do another comp test but doesnt look good.

Looking for the not good button!!
That sucks!!
 
Send your thoughts and prayers. Gotta talk the wife into letting me buy an '08 that's local to me. He started out asking $8K, now wants $6500 and gone by xmas. I offered $4k today, he came back at $5k. Lots of aftermarket parts on it. Might be best to just keep this other one as a parts bike. But I'm cheap and dont know if the wife will spend $4k-$5K on a more comfy rear seat.
