just wonderin wat u guys put in your radiators? thought it was water but thought i heard mention of other fluids being used. just to clarify cheers
buy ready mixed its easyer, anti freeze works in 3 ways it has stuff to stop corosion in ya water system, runs cooler than plain water and suprise suprise stops ya water freezing. if your thinking of just using water dont bother as the water in your engine freezes in winter it expands causing cracked barrels, rads and pipework
My mate lost his barrel to the winter because never had anti-freeze in his bike... Its great stuff it stops rust aswell
wow im so glad i asked this before any cold weather struck i never really knew to use anti-freeze and i wud av been so pissed if i fucked my barrel because of it. thanks
dont think u can just stick as much antifreeze in as you want, too much corrodes things like waterpumps, thats why u go by manufactures ratio's
50/50 is what i did. although i dont think i even needed that much, just what mr haynes reccomended :nerd:
or just buy ready mixed. is same price as dilute and you dont get left with half a bottle of dilute you will never use. eco aprilia lol
i yous neat coolant and it sem to kepp my bike well cool and i heard that water rusts water pump and things
with neat coolent your bike will run cooler but it will also not reach its optimal running temp this leads to premature wear and less performance(gulp). it will keep rust down but react in a different way causing early failure of parts its in contact with. unless you mean neat as in pre mixed then its fine
