thanks guys! i put it leveled and i can see i have enough oil but coolant is running low. if i were to pour more coolant, can it be mixed with another brand of coolant? also, how do i refill the front break fluid? its not like the rear break fluid that u can turn the cap and get it off.
EDIT: can i put car coolant in? or does it has to specified motorcycle coolant? |
Pretty much any coolant will do. Believe I'd go ahead and drain all the old crap out and flush with water then replace with new.
Some coolants are premixed at 50/50 or you can buy the straight stuff and mix it with water. |
oh how about the front break fluid? how do you refill that? its not like the rear break fluid where i can just remove the cap and put some new fluid in
|
Have someone hold the bike straight up for you while you look at the sight-glass.

Just kind of whipped through reading peoples responses so idk if im re-posting this but I would use Synthetic oil if you dont know what the previous owner used... you cant use non-synthetic once synthetic has been used...Synthetic is better anyways!

It also depends on how you run your bike and how long you decide to change the oil.. I would suggest full-synthetic if your standing it up on one wheel all the time or if you are bouncing it off the rev limiter or riding at a higer RPM. If you are commuting and shifting at a normal pace and want to have some play time on the weekends regular oil will do.

This is 100% FALSE. You can go back and forth from synthetic to non-synthetic all you want.
