Man you've given me life back I fought a heron addiction I got 6months clean and all I do is ride my gsxr and watch you're vids you don't know the difference you've made I want to thank you so much

@vicpnut1 Год назад

Hope u still good ,riding is a drug in itself imo.

@cruiserbrewser 9 лет назад

also, after you add the coolant, run the bike again to allow coolant to flow and fill the empty areas. then check it again and top off. if you dont, you will run the risk of overheating due to not enough coolant. also, when running it, leave the rad cap off until it starts to boil. cut off the engine and put the cap back of. allows the system to burp air bubbles out.

@chaseontwowheels 9 лет назад

Cruiser Brewser Thanks for that added info man!

@cruiserbrewser 9 лет назад

+chaseontwowheels no problem. I found out the hard way once. Haha

@MrBurgandy25 9 лет назад

Another easy way that I use on my 09 1125r is this; drain coolant, fill with distilled water, remove coolant return to radiator hose and route it to a container, with bike running add distilled water to the radiator as fast as it comes out the return hose. This will thoroughly remove all coolant. Then do this same process with your choice of coolant. I prefer Motul motocool factory line to engine ice, the specs are better.

@steventripp2981 9 лет назад

Another way to get air out of the system is to put the radiator cap on and shake the bike back and forth vigorously, then take the cap back off, do this until your coolant level stops dropping in your radiator. It's called burping the bike. Certain bikes (like mine) either have the bleeder screw in a hard to reach place or don't have one at all. Air in the system will damage the water pump over time.

@tschilling7333 9 лет назад

Exactly what I was thinking. I'd almost bet after you run the engine for a few minutes and fill the coolant ports in the engine block that you could fit the rest of that jug of coolant perfectly. Do this before you put all the fairings back on so you can fill the overflow reservoir since it should pull from there to keep the radiator full.

@SuperGamerGuy24 3 года назад

Man 5 years later and you’re still helping newbs like myself. Amazing detailed video man :)

@xlaimuxllt 9 лет назад

You should of ran bike after refilled since there is likely air in cooling system and overflow tank will need topping up.

@maddog8911capt 9 лет назад

A key note, he used pre-mixed engine ice. If using concentrate you must mix with distilled water to proper levels, refer to your owner manual.

@JoshIsNotBrilliantTv 9 лет назад

I love these how to videos, simply because im learning more about my bike as you do them!

@carters2 9 лет назад

A good tip for filling the system back up. Pump one of the coolant lines with your hand by squeezing and releasing several times. This will force any remaining air out of the system and will allow you to top off the radiator. After a couple squeezes you will notice the coolant level in the radiator will drop.

@WarBeardMotoVlogs 8 лет назад

I love the How-To Videos! Even though it's a different bike than my ZX6R it does give me the general idea of how it works. And to do a flush and let the bike run. Thanks Chase!

@Auctor137 9 лет назад

I like these How To's. I've got a Yamaha Thundercat from '97 and haven't changed the coolant since i bought it nearly 2 years ago. I wasnt sure about this whole cycle "put dest. water in, turn on, let it run out, again, then coolant...." and my bike runs just fine... But now i saw how to do it and its very simple, i'll do it in the coming weeks, good job chase.

@JoeJoeMoto 9 лет назад

Good job mate, very comprehensive. One thing you maybe should have added is that you should run the bike for a bit after adding the engine ice then check the fluid level again because it can sometimes have a few air bubbles in there.

@brandoncarroll5783 9 лет назад

Absolutely enjoyed this video please put out more like it for people who aren't engine savvy

@HeroofSomething 9 лет назад

Although I don't yet own a bike, I find this video thoroughly interesting! I do want to see all the videos to bring back holly, as I'm sure a lot of others do too. Keep it up Chase!

@stealerskey 8 лет назад

your how to videos are awesome. Really informative and entertaining. Very helpful when I'm learning about bike maintenance and not wanting to spend money to take it into a shop, it's good to know how to do it yourself. I have a red 07 yamaha r6. two thumbs up !!! I love you yummir6 motonosity and all the other motovloggers.

@fedexairbus 9 лет назад

Yep. Definitely like it. Keep the how to vids comin. Good job. It can only help you become a better mechanic and learn what works from other people who may have a more efficient or cost saving way.

@zaneslavin638 9 лет назад

it would be awesome to see more how toos. especially being a new bike owner.

@SammyOnAYammi 9 лет назад

Good how to man!!! I also changed my coolent this year! When I re did my R6

@OfficialLILV 7 лет назад

Thank you for taking the time to make this video. I heard the Engine Ice will clump up if mixed with water or other coolants. Double flush with distilled water...got it!

@javamac10 9 лет назад

Good job on the how to. Keep them comin. Interesting how different the process is between bikes. Mine has to be drained at the water pump and at the radiator, along with using thread sealant when replacing the bolts, then you have to "burp" the hoses when re-filling with coolant...

@nikkolaus 9 лет назад

Love the How-To videos..

@OHMAudioChannel 9 лет назад

Good stuff Chase. I would recommend adding in a step to rinse out the reservoir with some distilled vinegar to clean out any scale/sluge that may have collected in there. Just pour some in, shake it and rinse out with water. Look forward to seeing what's next for Holly.

@e.carrillo1948 3 года назад

@kawilifezx10r23 6 лет назад

You have come a long way bro.

@xXFastFingersXx 9 лет назад

Hi chaseontwowheels, great video but 1 thing worries me. When the engine is hot (as shown in your video), I would personally wait a few hours until the engine is completely cold. Because replacing the hot coolant with cool air runs the risk of cracking your head or some other damage. As an engineer I know rapid cooling of aluminium and other alloys is really bad in ANY engine.

@xXFastFingersXx 9 лет назад

DirtRider500R Yeah I agree it will be linear, but you have to take into account people from cool climates, like myself (UK) with a low abient temperture. Assuming the coolent hasnt been cooled and stood in open space we can assume it will be the same temperture as the ambient air. 20 degrees C would be the average for summer time here in the UK, less in other parts of the world. I'm not trying to be a "smart arse"or a "know it all", I just dont think its good advice dumping fresh coolent into a hot engine. No matter how good the grade of alloy, it will cool a lot quicker than it is intended to. This is called quenshing in engineering.

@calipapenfuss3576 9 лет назад

I like the how to videos! Even tho i dont have a bike.

@kafoure93 9 лет назад

Don't forget to cycle the system again by running the bike and leaving the cap off of the radiator. This will let out and air pockets in the cooling system. If you don't it can cause the engine to overheat.

@Kallyman1998 9 лет назад

Helpful video, thanks

@amirhamzah4574 5 лет назад

Awesome video.

@chowder1433 9 лет назад

I really like these videos please do more chase :)

@phatrides222000 7 лет назад

don't put the cap on until you are finished. as the coolant drops, add fluid. once the air is out the level will stop dropping.

@Phill_2170 9 лет назад

Very helpful and well explained. :-)

@hallon2wheelsxp647 9 лет назад

Please keep on doing the tutorial videos how to do it good for us and good for you and good for us to see how it's going

@chicosuave2966 9 лет назад

what mileage on any bike should you do a coolant flush i.e. CBR 600rr b/c my manual doesn't say? open to suggestions,my bike has 8,500 miles...I did like the how to video,def should do more like them.

@dillonosterhout1705 9 лет назад

the how to was on point.

@Rocknium1 9 лет назад

Amazing video, more of these are coming right?

@RandomGuyComments 3 года назад

Older video I know but this just saved me. Basically a friend of mine overheated my bike because he's not used to liquid cooled and his is air-cooled. He's been practicing with my R6 bc his is a 500cc and needs mine for his full license test. He ran the coolant dry. I went to fill it up but Yamaha made it so I can't see the fill line and have to take off the fairings just to access the reservoir just to drain it. At 2am after the gym, in the dark. What a pain in the ass. I just now saw how it was emptied. Damn. Rip. Ah well. Next bike is going to be naked. I love the look of fairings but they're annoying. A Gixxer has 1 panel. Mine has 4 and 99 bolts. Thanks Yamaha Edit: Just saw how you can drain it out of the bottom of the bike. I had taken my reservoir off the bike and poured out coolant until the full line. Then reinstalled. Plus all the fairings.

@Nielsdm 9 лет назад

just remove the lowest cooler hose, its way faster and easier. And after you filled it, start it up and the cooler lvl will go down a bid :D Nice vid btw, its still helpfull

@ryancooke8429 9 лет назад

Love the video

@pioneercaddy 7 лет назад

Good job shoulda recorded when the reservoir fluid started going into the engine ...amazing view!!

@Jaybird022395 9 лет назад

@zbangin749 7 лет назад

Bleed the the radiator cooling system with the radiator cap off and a funnel in it with little extra coolant sitting in it. As the engine runs the extra coolant bubbles as air escapes and the coolant fills in. Idk if the r6 or motorcycles in general have a way of doing that by itself lol but thats how i do it on my car and thats how its done on other cars. And FYI to those asking if its bad to mix a higher water to coolant ratio, its not. WATER IS THE BEST WAY TO KEEP YOUR ENGINE COOL but chemicals and additives in coolant are designed to keep it from freezing in extremely cold temperatures.

@Ohmz2000 7 лет назад

Luke Tabayoyong I was gonna say the exact same thing about bleeding the air out, if you don't sometimes the bike will hiccup and overheat a bit.. And about the water being mixed in, that's true, but engine ice works best in the mix it comes with, dropping your engine temp by up to 10 degrees, if you mix it with too much water it dilutes it more .. I'm from Texas, so I need all the coolness I can get lol..

@hespinobc 9 лет назад

How often should we flush this system, every year, every two years? The "how to" videos are very useful, thanks.

@nailedit1878 9 лет назад

Great vid c2dub...just fyi need to bleed system as stated also nuts/screw are bolts lol and the "tip" is a socket hahaha. We knew what you ment tho. Do you not need to mix the coolant 50/50?

@AquidneckRider 9 лет назад

Only thing I could suggest would be to squeeze the radiator hose as you refill it. This will help push out any air bubbles in the system. Not sure if you did this but it wasn't mentioned so that's my 2 cents. Otherwise..Good tutorial.

@twisted_void 9 лет назад

@djlancer88 10 месяцев назад

Not really a big deal and just leaving a comment to comment but in my fz6 manual I think it says to make sure the overflow is inbetween the High and Low marks when cold. Thanks for the video.

hey chase quick question how did u get your supermoto legal in ga I'm looking at getting a wr450f and Makin it into a street leagl one any tips man thanks

@mmitch03 9 лет назад

Chase, I know it is a little late to ask this but, how come you did not use 50% coolent and 50% water. Is it ok the use all the engine ice and not to half it with water? I want to use it on my 2009 R6S and appreciate your opinion. Thank You.

@Dkflying1 9 лет назад

Definitely prefer "how-to" videos. Everything else out there doesn't have as good of quality as this 👌🏼

@grdv10 9 лет назад

You kinda forgot the step to make sure there is no air in the coolant system. I don't know if this particular bike handles that on it's own but I know there's plenty of other bikes that don't. I usually squeezed the hell out of the hoses on the bike until there weren't any bubbles coming out of the radiator cap.

@Kevindeuxieme 9 лет назад

grdv10 Running the bike should take care of that, especially if you put the expected amount of coolant in. Doing it manually doesn't hurt, though.

@rickt2419 8 лет назад

This particular bike will circulate the air bubble up & out of the radiator in the the expansion tank (as its radiator's physical opening/cap is way higher than the highest point of the engine). But remember to let the engine cool completely (I generally let it cool over night then open the radiator cap to top off with coolant and refill the expansion tank to the Full mark). As you and Kevin mentioned, squeeze the hose won't hurt either.

@devinconner6465 9 лет назад

The second step (the one u skipped) did u leave the bottom bolt off and poor threw or did u put it back in and start the bake again. Loved the the vid as i always do
