COOLING SYSTEM
[The coolant]
The coolant consists of refrigerant and distilled water and has the function of anti-freezing. The
coolant will prevent the engine from overheating while at idle or travelling at low speeds.
[Adding Coolant]
To add coolant, use the following procedure:
1. Place the motorcycle on the Side Stand on flat ground.
2. Unscrew the Radiator Cap and pour in the coolant into the Radiator until filled.
3. Screw the Radiator Cap back on to the Radiator.
4. Start the motorcycle engine. When the temperature of the coolant reaches about 80 degrees,
stop the engine for 5 minutes then open the Radiator Cap. If the coolant level has reduced,
add more coolant until filled. Repeat this process three times.
5. The total capacity of coolant is approximately 1600 ml.
[Replacement of Coolant]
When the coolant has become dirty or at regular maintenance periods, the coolant should be
replaced. Follow this procedure:
1. Place the motorcycle on the Side Stand on flat ground.
2. While the engine is still at room temperature, place a container under the Radiator and
remove the Radiator Cap.
3. Unscrew the Coolant Release Bolt at the back of the Radiator and drain the coolant. Re-
tighten the bolt.
4. Fill the coolant in accordance with the method previously described.
[Function of Sensor]
If the temperature of engine reaches about 125 degrees Celsius, the Sensor Switch will
automatically activate and the Temperature Alarm Lamp on the Instrument Panel will light up.
If this occurs, you should turn off the engine and allow it to cool down before further use. Failing
to do so could seriously damage the engine.
Caution
Please only use 3500 anti-freezing, anti-corrosion coolant.
The coolant is toxic ā avoid eye and direct skin contact and should never be consumed.
DO NOT open the Radiator Cap when the engine is at high temperature. The water will be
under pressure and can spurt out causing injury.
Drain all coolant from the system before working on the Cooling System.
