Coolant
Has anybody had experience with wetter water type additives to make your bike run cooler ?? When I sit at idle for several minutes my bike gets a little warm, (gauge halfway). Makes me a little edgy so I thought I'd flush it according to the Feb article and when I refill add some wetter water stuff. Coments ??? Thanks AndyC

Re: Coolant
That behavior (getting warm at idle) is completely normal. As long as the fans are coming on, you have nothing to worry about.AndyC wrote:Has anybody had experience with wetter water type additives to make your bike run cooler ??
