The owner must properly maintain the coolant to prevent freezing, overheating,
and corrosion. Use only high quality ethylene glycol antifreeze containing
corrosion protection inhibitors specifically recommended for use in aluminum
engines. (SEE ANTIFREEZE CONTAINER LABEL).
Use only low-mineral drinking water or distilled water as a part of the
antifreeze solution. Water that is high in mineral content or salt may be
harmful to the aluminum engine.
The factory provides a 50/50 solution of antifreeze and distilled water in this
motorcycle. This coolant solution is recommended for most operating
temperatures and provides good corrosion protection. A higher concentration
of antifreeze decreases the cooling system performance and is recommended
only when additional protection against freezing is needed. A concentration of
less than 40/60 (40% antifreeze) will not provide proper corrosion protection.
During freezing temperatures, check the cooling system frequently and add
higher concentrations of antifreeze (up to a maximum of 60% antifreeze) if
required.
Using coolant with silicate inhibitors may cause premature wear of water pump
seals or blockage of radiator passages.
Using tap water may cause engine damage.
