With regard to the flow from the bleed tube and the pin hole below it I thought Id checked following Ducattis and TCs advice in the original overheating post, however I'm now starting to question if I did it or got distracted with the HGF nonsense instead.
I'll try that again in the morning and report back

Well I've braved the howling wind and rain here in Manchester to see if there is a flow from the bleed tube and pin hole and there isn't. I checked it from cold for about 1 minute on idle until the coolant had risen to the bottom of the filler neck.
I've also stuck a paper clip into the pin hole to make sure it is not blocked.
Firstly is 1 minute enough to test this properly?
Secondly shouldn't there be an associated sound somewhere to confirm this diagnosis?
Cheers
