[QUOTE="dirt bike dave, post: 1432315, member: 18302"] CCW to retard. Not sure about testing the cooling system, but a radiator cap can go bad, fins can get bent and internal passages in the radiator can get clogged. Old bikes that were not well maintained are going to be most likely to have trouble. In extreme cases, hoses can get clogged and water pump impellers can get damaged. Best bet is to closely inspect, and do the things you did (flush and replace coolant). Your problem may have just been poor fuel and maybe a little lean on the jetting for all the new heat/power you are making with the additional compression. But good for you for using this as an opportunity to learn and do some tuning. I'd probably rule out some simple things before changing he timing, but that's just me. FWIW, Another thing that could make your bike run hot is dragging brakes, but it sounds like your problem started after the top end work. [/QUOTE]
