j
Situate
the
motorcycle
perpendicular
to
the
ground until the radiator cap is level to the ground,
so that the radiator cap is located uppermost
in order to exhaust the air accumulated in the
radiator.
Remove the radiator cap in two steps.
First, turn the cap counterclockwise to the first stop
and wait there for a few seconds.
Then, push and turn the cap further in the same
direction and remove it.
A. Radiator Cap
Check the coolant level in the radiator.
The
coolant should come up to the bottom of the
radiator filler neck.
NOTE
Check the coolant level when the engine is cold
(room or ambient temperature).
A. Coolant Level
B. Filler Neck
If the coolant level is low, add coolant through the
radiator filler opening to the bottom of the filler
neck.
Water and Antifreeze Mixing Ratio
1:1 (water:antifreeze)
Recommended Antifreeze
Permanent type of antifreeze (ethylene glycol
plus corrosion and rust inhibitor chemicals for
aluminum engines and radiators)
Coolant Total Amount
1.2 L (1.3 US qt)
