I use a Mikuni made 12volt pump on a 1000cc Kawasaki engine in my race car and still use the thermostat, it is compact, I can look up the ref number if you are interested. I use the mechanical water pump drive for a dry sump pump so had to go electric.

Thanks John,
A reference number would be handy.

Cheers Murray.

Hi Murray,
I'll have a rummage and dig out the reference number
Cheers

A quick rummage
Mikuni P/no 0831375

My money would be on an airlock in the head-I ran my Saturno for years without a rad fan-it did have a Ducati 888 radiator though-ended up as a 558 after the dreaded waterpump failure-still no fan, and still no problems with temp.

my Saturno is similar, modified Nordie engine with keihin Cr carbs running no fan when in the UK, i chose to fit a fan here in Kano as its quite a bit warmer than Scotland when mine originated
Previous owners said it was OK unless stopped in traffic when it tended to piddle onto your boot
