bike is hot
My bike is been gettin hot everytime I accelerate the bike gets hotter n hotter...even in idle... I drove it down the street n road it bak up n it went to the h..... wen i stop the bike the coolant was drained .....the bike drank it like water..... I change the oil added coolant .... new thermostat.... drained all the coolant no signs of browwn.... I then drove it once more n the same thing happend the coolant was drank by the bike...... I then started to go at the spark plugs... I remove them all after like an hour..... they all looked like they had oil on them the two middle ones had more of the oily stuff then the outside ones.... I was told it might of been the head gasket... I llok at the whole bike n I don't see any leeks at all....if I just change the spark plugs will the bike stop overheating or do I really hav to change the head gasket

RE: bike is hot
if its losing coolant and its not on the ground there is only one place for it to go the through your head gasket it probably doesnt take long because there is not much coolant. the best way to check is with a compression gauge the cylinder or cylinders with very low compression will show where the gasket blew.
