Default Drop the radiator

Can any of you guys think of maintenance jobs that would make dropping the radiator easier to perform? Or jobs that require dropping the radiator?

I've heard that most folks don't drop the radiator on F4i to do plugs. Perhaps I should have taken the time to explain better.

I got a lot of work done awhile back. I also paid for 16k service including valves adjustment, etc. I also requested my cooling system flushed and filled with distilled and water wetter. I paid 0.6hrs to have this not done.

When I got the bike back, I checked that the coolant overflow bottle was pink, so I'm thinking good to go.

When I flushed the cooling system, anti-freeze comes out. I was deceived. Now I'm trying to get an idea of what was likely NOT done that I had paid for, since I know they didn't touch my radiator.

Maybe they didn't do a thorough flush. Which reminds me, I should probably flush out my system and what not before the season gets well started lol.
