Damn you beat me to it

I would but the bikes running rich, and very hot so need summin a bit stronger that water

Silkolene in mine atm.

says 50/50 mix in the manual as the water can damage aluminum parts ?

i use the stuff from wilko - cause its cheap ! its either 2 or 3 quid for a litre

I doubt if the coolant will make much difference. In reality the whole collant thing is just a simple heat transfer - from engine to collant and from coolant to air (at the radiator). If the bike is overheating there is a real problem that needs to be sorted before damage. Have you flushed out the radiator/ checked for blockages/ is the thermostatic valve working properly (if not it could be holding the temperature high) etc etc

If running very hot it could also be headgasket failure!

Cheers for the info guys.

Im 98% sure it aint a blown HG, i have a power filter and an after market can on there and the bike aint hasnt had any jet work done yet. I keep promising the bike that ill take it up there but stuff always comes up.
