    Waaay too much thought being put into this.... Change your oil and ride. No reason to be pulling water pumps apart

    It's probably just condensation.

    Run it.

    Re: Milky white sight glass

    This is my first winter storing my bike in my garage that is going to be freezing all winter long...

    What steps can I take to make sure that nothing goes wrong with the cooling system? I bought the bike used so I am unsure of the Water to Antifreeze ratio, or what kind of Antifreeze is in it.

    Should I drain/ Flush with a hose and fill it back up before the winter going 50/50?

    Thanks guys

    Yeah dude its either collan or its condensation. If it was coolant it would be obvious as soon as you drained the oil. It would look more white or tan. If it looks like normal oil there's no need to wait for it to seperate. Its good.

    Sorry just noticed there was a second page and problem was solved. Carry on

    You'll probably get a better response if you start a new thread.
