Use and maintenance
Change the coolant
Warning
This operation must only be carried out when the engine is cold. Attempting to change the coolant with the engine hot could lead
to burns from hot coolant or scalding steam.
Remove the right-hand fairing (Sect. E 2).
Remove the expansion tank filler cap (1).
Place a container under the engine and place the motorcycle on its sidestand.
Unscrew the plug from the drain hole (2) located on the pump cover.
Allow the coolant to drain off completely.
Refit the cap to the drain hole (2) along with a new gasket.
Fill the circuit by removing the cap (1) and pouring new coolant of the recommended type into the expansion tank.
Allow several minutes for the coolant to fill all internal passages.
Completely fill the expansion tank and replace the cap (1).
Start the engine and allow the coolant to reach 110 °C; run the engine for around 10 minutes.
Let the engine cool to allow all air to leave the cooling system.
Warning
Keep your hands, clothing and tools well clear of the radiator fan at all times; this fan starts automatically without warning and
could cause serious injury or damage.
Important
Check the cooling circuit for possible leaks.
Top up the coolant through the expansion tank filler to bring the level up to the MAX mark.
Refit and tighten the expansion tank cap (1) and refit all parts previously removed.
