Coolant
Checking the Coolant
1.
Place your motorcycle on a firm, level
surface.
2.
Hold your motorcycle in an upright
position.
3.
Check that the coolant level is between
the upper and lower level marks in the
reserve tank from the inspection window.
If the coolant level is dropping noticeably or
the reserve tank is empty, you likely have a
serious leak. Have your motorcycle inspected
by your dealer.

Recommended Coolant
Pro Honda HP is a pre-mixed solution of
antifreeze and distilled water.
Concentration:
50% antifreeze and 50% distilled water
A concentration of antifreeze below 40%
will not provide proper corrosion and cold
temperature protection. A concentration of
up to 60% will provide better protection in
colder climates.
NOTICE
Using coolant not specified for aluminum engines or
using ordinary tap water can cause corrosion.
