ENGINE COOLANT
Coolant level
The engine coolant solution should be
between the “F” (full) and “L” (low) level
lines on the engine coolant reservoir. If
the level is lower than “L” (low) level line,
bring it up to “F” (full) level by adding a
50:50 mixture of distilled water and
engine coolant.
To add mixed coolant:
1. Place the motorcycle on the side
stand.
2. Remove the cover by referring to the
SUSPENSION ADJUSTMENT sec-
tion.
3. Remove the filler cap and add prop-
erly mixed coolant through the filler
hole.
