EAU20071

Coolant

The coolant level should be checked
before each ride. In addition, the cool-
ant must be changed at the intervals
specified in the periodic maintenance
and lubrication chart.

EAU54163

To check the coolant level

1. Place the vehicle on the center-

stand.

TIP



The coolant level must be
checked on a cold engine since
the level varies with engine tem-
perature.



Make sure that the vehicle is posi-
tioned straight up when checking
the coolant level. A slight tilt to the
side can result in a false reading.

2. Remove the left cowling vent pan-

el. (See page 3-38.)

3. Check the coolant level in the

coolant reservoir.

TIP

The coolant should be between the
minimum and maximum level marks.
