Hi Sir, great and detailed video as usual! Just wondering how the second (left side) radiator, fill itself to the top with coolant and the air is able to be pushed out of it? Regards!

They are connected together and that's why you run your bike with the cup open for a bit you will see you will have to top it up as the coolant gets a bit lower and once top up start the bike again to make sure your coolant it up to the neck of the filling cap. Collant starts to rise when it is full. You can look it up also in Service shop manual.

Hi. Great video. Do you close the radiator cap when running for 4 minutes? Or is everything open. Thanks.

No leave it open you will see the coolant slowly rising, the idea is to get the air out of the system once coolant level starts moving up too close to spill turn the bike off. Hope that helps.

did mention just idle for few min not to make it hot correct? Warm fluids drain slightly better and that's common sense, you don't have to be certified mechanic. Same goes for oil change. My friend is a Mechanic at Toyota for many years he always recommend to do that NOT TO THE POINT WHERE ITS HOT. I did warm it up a bit too much when I was doing this video 😉 The engine was warmer then the fluid itself

Apparently there is a small pass through on that thermostat so coolant should drain. Also I didn't make the bike super hot before draining antifreeze just warm if you run your bike too hot you may get burned with hot fluid

I repeat my question because you can't see it in the video. Then, once the cooling system has been emptied, the new liquid is added. Then the bike starts, but does the cap have to be put back in the radiator or should it be left open without the cap?

Leave the cup open after you fill it up with coolant once engine reaches its operating temp. Close cap at the end and top up coolant reservoir to max line as you see in the video

This method does not clear all coolant. Coolant left in the engine water jacket remains due to a closed thermostat.
