Changing my coolant - any tips
#6
Did mine yesterday and did as noggy with washer/seal. I bought 15L of Halfords distilled water. Empted the coolant out, added flush and water then ran for 10min idling my fan kicked in. Then left to cool for 10 min.

I left the radiator filler cap on and took out drain bolt. If system is air tight no or little fluid will flow out until the filler cap is off. If alone place tub at a distance to collect coolant. If you have a mate I gave him funnel to put into bottle to catch fluid. After all was out and water went clear I simply flusher the rad with rest of water.

While on centre stand and after adding new coolant run the bike in first. Put bike onto wheels and rock back and forth and lean side to side. Back onto stand check coolant level.
