I'll be after winter taking anti freeze the zx6r and adding just distilled water . I'd like to give the rad and engine etc a nice flush through can anyone recommend a decent flush and is there anything not slippy and in regs or is distilled water fine , Thank wedgie #22
I have used just standard Holt Rad Flush from Halfords. Let the engine run with this in the rad and let it get up to temperature. Should do the job nicely. As for water during the season, just use distilled water. Motul make something called Motocool which you can apparently use instead but i personally would stick to distilled water.
Ok cool cheers rob done loads cars never bike . Do you just drain in winter or add antifreeze ? Cheers
I used to use engine ice, if using distilled water add find an additive to stop it rusting..... know what it's called in dutch, just can't find the english term Engine Ice used to be allowed during racing, but not sure any more NEW ENGINE ICE HI-PERFORMANCE MOTOCROSS ENDURO BIKE COOLANT 2L | eBay
If you are going to put anything in Wedgie, go with Motocool. I was told about it by Tony who ran Moto Corse racing in Wrexham, who said it was the only thing approved by the ACU. I have put this in the bike over winter as it acts as an anti freeze/coolant, but apparently it doesn't cause issues if it leaks onto the track.

Just had this from a acu chap The acu rules for 2014 p300 14.21 state the only liquid engine coolant permitted other than lubricating oil is water. As this is an additive and so is water wetter u can't use them (sorry to b a miserable ba***rd)
I said something similar J when I started doing trackdays .. Now my bike is ready for racing end march .
Good no booze the plan for January lost 3lbs already I am pretty lucky I can drop weight very quickly and without exercise so only need to loose another 6lbs then keep it off. My problem is the beer I can have 6 bottles of bud 5-6 nights a week so stopping that should help a lot . Then need to get out on my push bike and a bit of running easier said than done . Of topic sorry Wedgie.
No mate good point I'm off the beer from 27th dec I was bad so stopped early I go ski ing 8th feb so gonna try do until then . I have been exercising and started at 13st 8 I'm now 13st 1 so ain't going that and wanna try to get to 12.5
Your doing very well mate my ideal weight is 13 stone am just under 6ft and I am happy at that been eating lots of salad chicken and plenty of water .Cut the mcdonalds out etc it drops off me but I do like a McDonald's but its hard when you have kids and they have crisps and sweets in the cupboard .
