I do rinse the system out with water and drain the water out before filling the coolant. Pull the reservoir off the bike, drain it and clean it up before reinstalling it. Once you reinstall the reservoir you will want to fill it to the cold line. Now you need to heat cycle the bike then recheck the level. I would also recheck the level in the reservoir after the first ride. Hope this helps. - Van

hey van, I switched engine ice for my r3, I live in Texas so it gets very hot here, when I'm stopped at idle my bike will get up to 4 bars and then quickly cool back down to 3. Is this normal? I also saw it quickly flash 5 bars when pulling into the garage on a hot day. this is the only time I've ever seen it get this hot. usually at idle when not moving it switches between 3 and 4 bars, when moving it always stays at 3. should i be concerned?

Have you done a video on changing the oil on a Gsx R. I have a 2016 Gsx R 600 and i'm changing the oil, which I've done so many time but every time I get to the adding oil part I never really know how much oil. So today i'm changing the oil and i'm at 8 quarts and I still don't see oil in the window. The filter is on. The oil bolt is in. There is NO oil is leaking but I still don't see oil. I've looked at the forms and everyone is saying 2.3 qt.. So I'm like no way possible. So i'm confused.

Eight quarts is for sure over filled. I start with 2 and let it settle for a minute then check the level. If you can not see it on the stick or through the sight glass add another 1/4 to 1/3 of a quart and repeat. Once you see it in the operating range run the motor for a minute then turn it off to let it settle and recheck. Once you do a successful oil change make not of how much oil it required, this will make the process much easier the next time. - Van

You need to make sure the air is purged from the system and also check to make sure the fan is plugged in. If it worked before you changed the radiator (and you reused the fan that was on the bike) I would expect it to work with the new radiator if you have it properly installed. - Van

If you noticed this after you changed the coolant I would top it off and recheck after riding. Make sure you check and adjust the level when the motor is cold.

If it is low again you need to remove the fairings and take a close look for leaks. - Van

Brian, can you answer this please. I have an 18 R1 and a 19 R3 which I've bought parts from your store. Regarding engine ice, my research shows that while Engine Ice has a higher boiling point and anti-freeze properties, it has a quicker temperature exchange for hot and cold, meaning it heats up fast and cools fast where as OEM cools slower and heats up slower. This tells me Engine Ice isn't good for stop n go and more for track? Is this your experience? What are you using for your street bikes, if you have any. Also I live in Texas for reference.

@sportbiketrackgear

4 жыл бұрын

i just did it with my dad. he has a S1000RR and it's the same process. you will need a "one man brake bleeder" which is a bottle with a hose that attaches to the brake bleed valve. there is a bleed valve on the front too. just attach the hose, loosen the bleed valve, open the reservoir cap, and start pumping the brakes. and top off the fluid in the reservoir when it's half full, so there's no air pockets. it's very easy. when the bleed bottle clears up with the new brake fluid, you'll know it's done.

After I change my bikes oil I take it to my local car parts store (AutoZone) and they have a big vat in the back for old oil. But you can pretty much take it to any of those stores and they take it back from you. Just for people who didn't know.

@@sportbiketrackgear Fair enough. I should have looked into your channel for more info. The safety wire should have made it obvious too.

I just got mine it was dropped. And the radiator needed to be changed. I did that and plugged everything back up but the fan wouldn’t kick on and the overflow tank started bubbling and even squirting a little. What should I do replace the fan because it never kicked in? Or the thermostat. Was using Yamaha yamacool fluid blue. Help please

You need to make sure the air is purged from the system and also check to make sure the fan is plugged in. If it worked before you changed the radiator (and you reused the fan that was on the bike) I would expect it to work with the new radiator if you have it properly installed. - Van
