Hey guys ... once the thermostat is OPEN it has no effect
on the coolant temperature. System capacity, ambient temp
,coolant system condition, etc. will have an effect on
the ability of the system to cool the motor. The
thermostat is there to prevent the motor from running too
cold.

Right; and good point. When I did the comparision with the two VFR's
it was hotter than heck in Texas. I sure the thermostats
were "stuck" open.
During cooler times when the thermostat is opening and shutting I
would guess that WW would not have a colloing effect.

This technology seems to be very important to the agriculture
industry where it apparently allows for quicker and more efficient
absorption of fertilizers, nutrients and I guess water ( thats right
I'm no farmer). This application in engine coolant may have been an
afterthought....cosmo

There is also a take town style case from the brand "Gun Guard" that is
pretty cheap. I think they are about 37"-38" wide. I have seen them in
black and brown. They would lay flat across the stock rack. I have bungied
mine in front of the Giv top case.

break down in to short enough lengths that I can carry them very comfortably
in a soft padded case crosswise on the bike on my Top-of-the-Line cargo rack
on my KLR. Much less bulky than an ATV hard shell case. There is plenty
of room on the rack for shells, clothing, lunch, etc. I got my rack from
Fred Hink. I realize this is not quite what you asked but it may still be a
viable and inexpensive solution for you. The rack would also make carrying
out the turkey(s) you shoot much easier (I should be so lucky!). Good
hunting!

First time I heard of water wetter was in the 70's, a fireman told me
about it, they use it to increase water's suppressive properties.
