Sept of 2006 someone slammed into me pulling a BS u-turn without warning, it messed me and my 06GSXR600 pretty bad.
Anyhow, the bike sat until about two weeks ago in a buddies garage when I was able to go pick it up and to my disbelief, after confirming oil was in the bike, it started immediately. I did not notice though, until letting it idle a few times since then for no more than 3-4 minutes, that the coolant had leaked out long before I picked it up.
I immediately filled the system for now, and I am waiting on a replacement radiator to replace the bent one.
Could there be any damage to pump seals, or heat damage to internals from running it a few times, about 4 minutes each time? The engine only ever got warm to the touch on the outside during the startups.
Is there anything I should watch out for?
