Ok, so strangely enough i've never actually done a coolant flush on any vehicle i've owned. I want to do one on my 03 max b/c i think its never been done (5/6 years)...
When i first got the bike, it seems like it never really got 'warm' enough (i know, a very odd complaint) and the thermostat gauge never really got close to the middle, usually well below it. So i figured i'd do the coolant. Also could be that i got it in october and hadn't riden it above probably 50 degrees out.
so my question is this. what coolant do I use on the bike? I have the haynes manual and it looks pretty easy as a read thru. drain it, flush it, fill it back up.
also with what coolant, what mixture do you use? suggested on the bottle for that coolant? or always 50/50 or...?
Thanks in advance guys...
