has anyone changed the anti-freeze out on the new 06 model yet??? running tallegada this weekend.

 

well yes and no...its changed, but the dealer did it...went with engine ice; have heard nothing but great things about it from other AZ riders;

 

AZ1000RR,

How hot has your bike benn running since it has been heating up? I'm in the East valley and ride back and forth to work and it will flat get hot sitting at a stop light (226) and runs about 196 @ 80 mph on the freeway. This is with stock anti-freeze and just over 2K miles on the bike.

 

last night in traffic on the 101 i got as high as 210, but most of the time i was at 205 or less; 197 once traffic got moving along; will have to see how it goes as the temp goes up, but the dealer said it should run at no more than 220 stuck in traffic at 110 deg, with the engine ice in it; just got the bike so we shall see; as long as i don't overheat on the way home during the summer i will be happy

 

i live down here in florida and with the stock antifreeze sometimes my bike will hit 240! the temp light never comes on but man it gets hot. the heat down here is pretty bad too with really high humidity. i have seen my friends busa go off like a volcano stuck in traffic. i am switching to engine ice because i hear great things about it. i have to do something with the temp

 

you won't regret it....it was 102 degrees here yesterday, traffic was crap, average speed of about 14 miles an hour...took me almost an hour to get home in traffic, the highest my temp got was 214 degrees...this stuff really works!!!
