7-2 COOLING AND LUBRICATION SYSTEM
ENGINE COOLANT
At the time of manufacture, the cooling system is filled with a 50:50 mixture of distilled water and ethylene glycol anti-freeze. This 50:50 mixture will provide the optimum corrosion protection and excellent heat protection, and will protect the cooling system from freezing at temperatures above –31 °C (–24 °F).
If the motorcycle is to be exposed to temperatures below –31 °C (–24 °F), this mixing ratio should be increased up to 55% or 60% according to the figure.

 | 
 | 
| 55% | –40 °C (–44 °F) | 
| 
 | 
 | 
| 60% | –55 °C (–67 °F) | 
| 
 | 
 | 
| 
 | 
 | 
*Use a high quality ethylene glycol base anti-freeze, mixed with distilled water. Do not mix an alcohol base anti-freeze and different brands of anti-freeze.
*Do not put in 60% and more anti-freeze or 50% and less. (Refer to below figure.)
*Do not use a radiator anti-leak additive.

*You can be injured by scalding fluid or steam if you open the radiator cap when the engine is hot. After the engine cools, wrap a thick cloth around cap and carefully remove the cap by turning it a quarter turn to allow pressure to escape and then turn the cap all the way off.
*The engine must be cool before servicing the cooling system.
*Coolant is harmful;
•If it comes in contact with skin or eyes, flush with water.
•If swallowed accidentally, induce vomiting and call physician immediately.
•Keep it away from children.

COOLING CIRCUIT INSPECTION
| Before removing the radiator and draining the engine coolant, | E | |||||
| inspect the cooling circuit for tightness. | 
 | 
 | ||||
| L | ||||||
| • Remove the right under cowling. ( 8-5) | ||||||
| 
 | 
 | 
 | 
 | |||
| • Remove the radiator cap 1 and connect the tester 2 to the | 
 | 
 | ||||
| filler. |

•Give a pressure of about 120 kPa (1.2 kgf/cm², 17 psi) and see if the system holds this pressure for 10 seconds.
•If the pressure should fall during this 10-second interval, it means that there is a leaking point in the system. In such a case, inspect the entire system and replace the leaking component or part.
When removing the radiator cap tester, put a rag on the filler to prevent spouting of engine coolant.
Do not allow the pressure to exceed the radiator cap release pressure, or the radiator can be damaged.
 
• Remove the under cowlings. ( 8-5)
• Drain the engine coolant. ( 2-17)
• Remove the radiator assembly. ( 3-4)
• Remove the reservoir tank 1, cooling fan 2 from the radiator.

| RADIATOR CAP INSPECTION | P | 
 | |
| • Fit the cap 1 to the radiator cap tester 2. | 
 | ||
| • Build up pressure slowly by operating the tester. ake sure | 
 | ||
| that the pressure build-up stops at 93 – 123MkPa (0.93 – 1.23 | 
 | ||
| kgf/cm2, 13.2 – 17.5 psi) and that, with the tester held stand- | 
 | ||
| 
 | A | 
 | 
 | 
| still, the cap is capable of holding that pressure for at least 10 | 
 | ||
| seconds. | S | 
 | 
 | 
| 
 | 
 | 
 | |
| • Replace the cap if it is found not to satisfy either of these two | 
 | ||
| requirements. | 
 | 
 | 
 | 
Radiator cap valve opening pressure Standard: 108 – 137 kPa
(1.1 – 1.4 kgf/cm2, 15.4 – 19.5 psi)
RADIATOR INSPECTION AND CLEANING
Road dirt or trash stuck on the fins must be removed.
Use of compressed air is recommended for this cleaning.
 
COOLING AND LUBRICATION SYSTEM 7-5
Fins bent down or dented can be repaired by straightening them with the blade of a small screwdriver.
RADIATOR INSTALLATION
• Install the cooling fan.
Cooling fan mounting bolt: 8 N·m (0.8 kgf-m, 6.0 lb-ft)
•Install the radiator.
•Route the radiator hoses properly. ( 10-24)
•Pour engine coolant. ( 2-17)
•Bleed air from the cooling circuit. ( 2-18)
•Install the under cowlings. ( 8-5)

| WATER HOSE INSPECTION | L | ||
| P | |||
| • Remove the under cowlings. ( 8-5) | |||
| • Lift and support the fuel tank. ( 5-3) | |||
| 
 | |||
| Any water hose found in a cracked condition or flattened must | |||
| be replaced. | M | ||
| Any leakage from the connectingAsection should be corrected by | |||
