I had something similar on my 31k hybrid, where the expansion tank would blow its cap off and spray the water out. It turned out to be the non standard head that i was using, it had a cracked dome and was pressurising the cooling system, once i swopped back to the standard head the problem stopped.
With you it could be air trapped in the cooling system, it might be worth draining and re-filling, slowly!! Or as Dusty said, check the head bolts. When i re-filled my system, i filled the expansion tank to half way between 'min' and 'max' and marked the level, then kept checking when hot, where the level will go up a bit and then cold, when it should return to the same mark.
Re the cap, i think you have the right one, i would need to check mine.

Looks superb Yogi, but given the choice i would prefer the hybrid you are building, but both are outstanding.

Hi, Does anyone know of someone who can weld/Braise up my tank it hasn't gone in the usual place but someone has put two self tappers in on the seem of the bottom right of the tank for some stupid reason instead of repairing it properly . Also does anyone do repro side panels for the 31k as mine are shot. Thanks Lee Cannot help re the tank i'm afraid but repro side panels are available. There is a seller on ebay 'billydafish' he sells them, i've had some, they seem pretty good. HTH Mouse

Strange that the LC wasn't commonly available in the States, I wonder why?? Emissions me thinks. The YPVS's that were imported had all sorts of carb and exhaust nonsense to clean them up! Mouse

Just tried to fit my refurbed rear master cylinder guess what ! It doesn’t fit with the braced swingarm,the reservoir is touching the bracing 🤬do I need a back brake anyway! So far I’ve had to under sling the caliper to avoid the bracing now this I’ll bet M.D is just waiting on ordering his upgraded rear master cylinder for about £200. where do I get one of those poly hose reservoir? If you want the HRC hose kit, it comes wuith the stopper etc, the hose is green. Try 'Dobles' motorcycles or Fleabay Mouse

Wow, this is looking good Dusty! You weren't joking about the small rear light, you've got to flush mount it into the ducktail, would look fantastic and i love the koso, the whole bike is looking great and very different. Cannot wait to see more

Well i finally got around to getting my 4LO hybrid on the dyno and sorting the jetting. The man who goes by the name of MuttNuts provided the dyno time and jetting. We have gone from 380 mains down to 340. I always knew she was set up rich! She is so much crisper now, Dave was a star and everything was done while i watched, like an expectant father! We ended up with 66RWHP (tuned engine, 31k carbs, pod filters, v force reeds and Mark Dent pipes) which i am pretty pleased with and a very crisp feeling engine, she was not bad before but after Dave did my 31k Hybrid she was beginning to feel a bit woolly! Also, while up at Dave's i did something which i have always wondered about, what does my hybrid weigh??
Any guesses?? About 3/4 of a full tank, oil and coolant, without seat or side panels
YEP, 132.2 kilos!! I'm amazed and pleased, there is more weight to loose if i feel like it, but i thought it would be much heavier with the RGV front and rear ends!
