coolant

Hey guys, First off to start I own a 2017 CB650F, with 30000 miles on the clock. As the summer approached the bikes overflow tank has gotten empty (bone dry that is) and now every time I attempt to fill it up it leaks out straight off the overflow tube on the left of the bike. The system has...

Hi Guys, Just thought I'd say hello and introduce myself I passed my DAS 2 weeks a go and picked my new bike up on Saturday. First ride home was 75 miles, so felt pleased with this. Bike was great and really enjoyed my first ride on my own. Got used to the bike quite quickly and really think...

Hi folks, TLDR: During a ride, the temp light came on. Noticed that there was no coolant in the coolant tank, so bought some Prestone Antifreeze + Coolant meant for 4 wheelers. Rode couple of miles more, temp light came on. Noticed oil tank was completely empty. Rode couple of more miles. Added...

What's the appropriate coolant to use on my cb650r .

Hey guys! Noticed a drop of bright blue liquid right under the bike after taking it off the paddock stand last night, only the one drop and its been sat there over a week so not a severe leak but still. I've not taken it apart yet but seems like I'll have to change a gasket, is anyone able to...

Hi all, I’m brand new to the forums and only a year into motorcycle riding - take it easy on me (or dont). I’m relatively mechanically inclined, but brand new to motorcycles.. so I have a lot to learn. I’ll try not to make this too long, but I want to make sure I catch you all up to speed...

Ciao, Trovo molto difficile controllare il livello dell'acqua del radiatore nel vaso di espansione. Solo inserendo una piccola lampadina sotto il vassoio posso controllare se c'è acqua oppure no. Colpa della plastica troppo opaca ... non si vede nulla nemmeno usando il liquido di raffreddamento...

Hi all, I bought a secondhand bike (less than a year old) and am having problems. I added fuel stabiliser to the tank - as I don’t plan on riding for a few months - last night and ticked it over for 10 minutes as instructed.I went to rev the engine a tiny bit and it cut out, and now it won’t...

Hi, Whilst checking my bike over today I noticed that the coolant level seemed low. I got my wife to hold the bike upright and checked the reservoir bottle properly. I couldn’t see the level against the lower or upper marks. So I took the cap off and shone a torch inside. You could see the...

I bought this Engine Coolant at Shell petrol station, can I use it in my 2017 CB650F? it says it contains no silicates, nitrites, amines or phosphates. But doesn't say anything about being ok for aluminium engines.

Did a coolant flush today. I drained coolant from rad and reservoir. Filled rad with distilled water. I did not start the bike. Let sit and shook the bike. Then I drained. Filled rad and reservoir with coolant. Ran the bike. Then topped up rad. My question is, should I have ran the bike with the...

Hi fellow Honda owners. I have stood my bike (CB 650F ABS) up so it's completely vertical. I can't see the level of coolant in the overflow tank between the two marks. I added more coolant which then spilled out onto my garage floor. Is this normal or am I doing something wrong. No problems with...
