Abstract
A motorcycle having a liquid-cooled engine with a liquid cooling system. The system includes a radiator, a water jacket about the engine and connecting feed and return lines. The radiator is located in the forward part of the motorcycle while the engine is located in the rear. The cooling lines pass beneath a step floor located intermediate a front leg shield and the rear body of the vehicle. A thermostat is positioned to selectively control flow through the return line while a water pump pumps flow to the engine. A bypass line extends from the uppermost portion of the cooling jacket at the engine to the radiator for extraction of air from the system. A pressure controlled radiator cap provides selective communication with a reserve tank.
