ENGINE COOLANT SOLUTION
Use engine coolant that is com-
patible with an aluminum radiator,
mixed with distilled water at a
50:50 mixture ratio for engine
coolant solution. An engine cool-
ant mixture other than 50:50 can
affect cooling efficiency or rust
inhibiting performance.
Engine Coolant
Engine coolant should be used at
all times in your motorcycle’s radi-
ator, even if the temperature in
your area does not go down to the
freezing point. Engine coolant
acts as a rust inhibitor and water
pump lubricant as well as an anti-
freeze solution.
Water for Mixing
Use distilled water only. Water
other than distilled water can cor-
rode and clog the aluminum radia-
tor.
Required amount of engine cool-
ant/water solution capacity (total):
2200 ml (2.3 US qt)
WARNING
Engine coolant is harmful or
fatal if swallowed or inhaled.
Do not drink antifreeze or cool-
ant solution. If swallowed, do
not induce vomiting. Immedi-
ately contact a poison control
center or a physician. Avoid
inhaling mist or hot vapors; if
inhaled, remove to fresh air. If
coolant gets in eyes, flush eyes
with water and seek medical
attention. Wash thoroughly
after handling. Solution can be
poisonous to animals. Keep
out of the reach of children and
animals.
CAUTION
Spilled engine coolant can
damage painted surfaces.
Do not spill any fluid when fill-
ing the radiator. Wipe spilled
engine coolant up immediately.
