34 MAINTENANCE AND ADJUSTMENT Cooling System Radiator Hoses Check the radiator hoses for cracks or deterioration, and the connections for looseness in accordance with the Periodic Maintenance Chart. j Radiator Check the radiator fins for obstruction by insects or mud. Clean off any obstructions with a low-pressure stream of water. NOTICE Using high-pressure water, as from a car wash facility, could damage the radiator fins and impair the radiator's effectiveness. Do not obstruct or deflect airflow by installing unauthorized accessories in front of the radiator. Interference with the cooling airflow can lead to overheating and consequent engine damage. Coolant Coolant absorbs excessive heat from the engine and transfers it to the air through the radiator. If the coolant level becomes low, the engine overheats and may suffer severe damage. Check the coolant level each day before riding the motorcycle, and replenish coolant if the level is low.
