Final Gear Oil; Engine Coolant Solution - Suzuki VZ1500 Owner's Manual

FINAL GEAR OIL

Use an SAE90 hypoid gear oil which is
rated GL-5 under the API classification
system. If you operate the motorcycle
where ambient temperature is below
0°C (32°F), use SAE80 hypoid gear oil.

ENGINE COOLANT SOLUTION

Use engine coolant that is compatible
with an aluminum radiator, mixed with
distilled water at a 50:50 mixture ratio
for engine coolant solution. An engine
coolant mixture other than 50:50 can
affect cooling efficiency or rust inhibiting
performance.
Engine Coolant
Engine coolant should be used at all
times in your motorcycle's radiator, even
if the temperature in your area does not
go down to the freezing point. Engine
coolant acts as a rust inhibitor and
water pump lubricant as well as an anti-
freeze solution.
