haed gasket problem??
HI guys, I may have a head gasket problem,what do you guys think, here's the symptoms :
uses abit of coolant, no obvious leeks(cooling system), a wee bit of froth/bubbles appear at the radiator neck when the bikes rpms raised up abit(2500,3000 rpm) from idle, sludgy grey/white/clearish matter around the radiator cap seal and spring.
The oil looks good though.
thanks

Sounds like a head gasket to me. I had the same symptoms except for the sludge when I had my head gasket go out.

let it idle on the stand until the fan comes on, then look in the sight of the overflow tank. If you see bubbles, you have head gasket troubles; at least i did...
