COOLING
SYSTEM
To ensure efficient
engine cooling,
check the coolant level each day before
riding the motorcycle, and top up the coolant
if the level is low.
Corrosion Inhibitors
To protect the cooling system from rust and
corrosion, the use of corrosion inhibitor
chemicals in the coolant is essential.
If coolant containing corrosion and rust
inhibitor chemicals is not used, the cooling
system will accumulate rust and scale in the
water jacket and radiator. This will block the
coolant passages, and considerably reduce
the efficiency of the cooling system.
A
WARNING:
mixture containing corrosion
inhibitors and anti-freeze suitable for
aluminium engines and radiators.
Always use the anti-freeze in
accordance with the instructions of
the manufacturer.
Coolant mixture which contains anti-
freeze and corrosion inhibitors
contains toxic chemicals which are
harmful to the human body. Never
swallow anti-freeze or any of the
motorcycle coolant.
Coolant Change

Do not obstruct or deflect airflow
through the radiator by installing
unauthorised accessories, either in
front of the radiator or behind the
cooling fan. Interference with the
radiator airflow
overheating, resulting in engine
damage.
