16.1
Cooling system
E00503-10
The water pump
in the engine circulates the coolant.
The pressure resulting from the warming of the cooling system is regulated by a valve
in radiator cap
. This ensures that operating the vehicle at the specified coolant
temperature will not result in a risk of malfunctions.
120 °C (248 °F)
Cooling is effected by the air stream.
The lower the speed, the less the cooling effect. Dirty cooling fins also reduce the cool-
ing effect.
The radiator fan provides extra cooling. It is controlled by a thermoswitch.
16.2
Checking the antifreeze and coolant level
Warning
Danger of scalding
During motorcycle operation, the coolant gets very hot and is under pressure.
–
Do not open the radiator, the radiator hoses or other cooling system components if the engine or the cooling system are at
operating temperature.
–
Allow the cooling system and the engine to cool down before you open the radiator, the radiator hoses or other components
of the cooling system.
