1. Checking the coolant level is done by checking the level in the coolant reservoir, NOT the radiator. NEVER open the radiator when the engine is hot! The coolant level should be checked when the engine is at operating temperature, but the engine turned off. Remove the left top inner cover by pulling the tab free at the rightmost edge as shown.

2. Follow by pulling each tab free in sequence until you get to the front tab.

3. This tab locks in place at the top - be careful not to break it.

4. Turn the handlebars all the way to the right to gain access to the reservoir cap.

5. Pull the cap off. The dipstick is built into the cap. The coolant level should be between the low and high marks (the two rectangular openings). If coolant level is low, add coolant to the reservoir tank until it reaches the high mark on the dipstick.

6. Replace the cap and ensure it is properly sealed to the coolant reservoir (it may take a bit of pressure around the edge of it to seal completely).

7. Insert the forward tab of the left top inner cover into its slot in the dashboard.

8. Work your way around the top inner cover, inserting the tabs into their slots, until you finish up with the tab on the inner part of the fairing top.
