Coolant level check

Check level (1) in right-hand radiator when engine is cold (place the motorcycle
so that it is perpendicular to the ground). The coolant should be approximately
0.39 in. above the cells.
The radiator cap features two locking positions: the first one is for prior discharge
of pressure from the cooling system.
Avoid removing radiator cap when engine is hot, as coolant may spout
out and cause scalding.
Difficulties may arise in eliminating coolant from painted surfaces. If this
occurs, wash off with water.

Coolant replacement

Place a vessel on the RH side of the cylinder, under the screw (1).
SLOWLY open the RH radiator cap (2); slope the motorcycle on the left side to
drain the coolant easily in the vessel.
Pour the necessary quantity of coolant in the radiator then warm up the engine
in order to eliminate any possible air bubbles.

this will avoid coolant leakage and consequent engine seizure. If hoses (A) show
cracks, swelling or hardening due to sheaths desiccation, their replacement
shall be advisable.
Check the correct tightening of the clamps (B).
