Don’t be a Hero, be consistent.
I have 2 bikes that I will be flushing and filling this winter, a 2007 Yamaha FZ6 and 2009 Honda CBR600RR.
The FZ is my commuter bike with 32,000 miles on it. The coolant has never been changed but has been checked. Never a drop missing and still has good boiling and freezing points. How many times should I flush it with a chemical flush before I rinse with distilled water and add fresh fluid? Should I replace the hoses, pump, thermostat and radiator cap while I’m at it?
Same questions for the CBR plus one more. Is there a coolant that still gives the same freeze protection as normal antifreeze but wouldn’t cause a problem if I got some on the track?
