Front Fork Oil; Engine Coolant; Water For Mixing; Anti-Freeze/Engine Coolant - Suzuki GSX-R750 Service Manual

1-6 GENERAL INFORMATION

FRONT FORK OIL

Use fork oil SS-05 or an equivalent fork oil.

ENGINE COOLANT

Use an anti-freeze/engine coolant compatible with an aluminum radiator, mixed with distilled water only.

WATER FOR MIXING

Use distilled water only. Water other than distilled water can corrode and clog the aluminum radiator.

ANTI-FREEZE/ENGINE COOLANT

The engine coolant performs as a corrosion and rust inhibitor as well as anti-freeze. Therefore, the engine
coolant should be used at all times even though the atmospheric temperature in your area does not go down
to freezing point.
Suzuki recommends the use of SUZUKI COOLANT anti-freeze/engine coolant. If this is not available, use
an equivalent which is compatible with an aluminum radiator.

LIQUID AMOUNT OF WATER/ENGINE COOLANT

Solution capacity (total): Approx. 2 700 ml (2.9/2.4 US/Imp qt)
For engine coolant mixture information, refer to cooling system section in page 7-2.

Mixing of anti-freeze/engine coolant should be limited to 60%. Mixing beyond it would reduce
its efficiency. If the anti-freeze/engine coolant mixing ratio is below 50%, rust inhabiting perfor-
mance is greatly reduced. Be sure to mix it above 50% even though the atmospheric tempera-
ture does not go down to the freezing point.
