I was wondering if anybody has changed their coolant with new. I am big on maintenance and thought I should do this also. Is there much need for it?

 

water wetter or engine ice. eng ice worked great on mine

 

Water wetter for me on my next coolant replacement. Used this stuff in my R1 and CBR600.

 

Big props for Engine Ice I run it in both my bikes. Makes the bike cool down quicker and it takes longer for it to get hot. I can't say about the Waterwetter I've never tried it.

 

I recomend water wetter, engine ice is not allowed on tracks and keep in mind your bike will not have anti freeze so think about winter

 

Engine ice is an antifreeze down to -26 F.

You had me worried for a second there!!! I've had it in my bike for ~3 winters now and haven't had a problem.

 

Just bring it in the living room when it gets cold. My 600 is sitting there right now. (It has water and Water Wetter).

My 954 has Liquid Performance, which is like Engine Ice. The tracks around here will allow regular coolants for trackdays on street bikes, but not for racing.

 

It rarely gets below zero around here so I'm good on that. May do a few track days this summer but I doubt you will seem me racing anytime soon. Got that out of my system on dirt bikes as a kid. Good to know though.

 

already changed coolant. was easier than I thought. Just making sure bike is up to speed when summer hits.

 

So, how did ya do it? Any key pointers? I should probably no mine in the spring too. I was thinking about doing the break fluid too...if anyone has any ideas on how to do that. I do have a copy of the maintenance guide, but I'm not sure that gives step by step. Thanks!!
