coolant flush?


I do it all the time for track to street to track to...

disconnect the lowest hose (down by the pump) into a small bucket. Caution: HOT!! Filling is harder, some bikes have a bleed valve, anyway, you have to physically tilt the bike back and forth to burp the radiator, refill, run the engine briefly, refill, bring up to temp, refill.

There is a big difference between bike and car antifreeze; lubricant for the ariconditioning (bikes don't have these).

Where' you at?
If you get the chance, switch over to 'propolene; alcohol based. This is legal on the track.
