How To Flush & Change Motorcycle Coolant - GSXR750
Рет қаралды 32,738
3 жыл бұрынHeather filmed me flushing and changing the coolant on her 2017 Suzuki gsxr750 a few months back and I finally got around to editing and uploading the video. This is my method for doing a full flush of the OEM coolant and switching to a non toxic coolant such as Engine Ice. Hope this helps some of you who have asked me to do a tutorial... unless of course your bike is air cooled lol. Thanks for watching! =)

Suzuki doesnt put a petcock or drain bolt on the water pump? Also, it helps to put the bike on the kickstand when filling the radiator since the fill is the highest point and will help get the air out. Good stuff.

Another thing you never mentioned in this video is it has an air bleed on the bike that you need to open up and let the air come out when you fill it with new coolant until it flows with coolant, nobody ever mentioned that big mistake by the video maker

I've got a 2011 gsxr600. I believe the bleeder bolt is at the top of the water pump housing. On the left side. The hose that he drained first, where lots of coolant came out, is connected to that housing.

Question. So my 2016 gixxer only has 5300 miles. I have had it for about 2-3 years and haven't changed the coolant yet. Do I need to do it now or can I wait until I hit 10k miles? thanks salt

much better if dont open the radiator cap first just to create some vaccum to slow down the flow before taking out the bottom hoses

does the 750 doesn't have bleeder screen to get the air out?
@AdVan82 3 жыл бұрын
It does on the water pump. Just look at the cover where he disconnected the two lower coolant hoses from. Should be the uppermost bolt with a copper washer behind it. Loosen that bolt slightly until you get a steady dribble of coolant to purge remaining air from the system.

Agreed. Although my RSV4 has been the easiest aside from my track GSXR. I find that the Japanese sportbikes have gotten a lot more complicated and annoying with removing plastics. The Italian bikes are so much easier to work on. People say they are much more difficult but it’s actually the opposite.

@seekter-kafa Жыл бұрын
of course you can flush it with tap water, i let it run for some time, only then if you are so concerned can you flush it with distiled water to wash away tap water, then use coolant to wash away distiled water, then you fart inside and only after that you can finally pour proper coolant mix... your bike will absolutely not know any difference, but you will sleep better and later sell your knowledge on yt posts
