1. Check the coolant level in the
reservoir tank when the engine is
cold as the coolant level will vary
with engine temperature. The
coolant level should be between
the minimum and maximum
marks on the tank.
2. If the coolant level is at or below
the minimum mark, fill with tap
water (soft water) to bring the
level up to the specified level.
Change the coolant every two
years.
3. If your motorcycle overheats, see
page 6-38 for details.
