Engine Coolant

[Moto92]

The coolant level on the R has gotten down to the low mark. Should I just top it off with whatever Honda has put in it or is there a better product on the market I should replace all the fluid with.

[Scro]

Just buy some coolant from your local dealer and top it off.

engine ice, i just ordered some, its supposed to lower the heat by 50 degrees

engine ice is the best stuff IMO. drain all you fluid and pour a gallon or two of water down your radiator and then add this stuff in there and you are good to go.

a gallong or two of water and then add engine ice? How much do you think radiator holds in the 450? I thought you used just straight engine ice anyways?

[Moto92]

I believe he meant a gallon or two to flush the system, then add the engine ice. Does the engine ice need to be mixed with water?

[Punk'd]

I use the Honda stuff in the blue bottle.

YOU DO NOT MIX ENGINE ICE WITH WATER! I meant to say a gallon or 2 of water to flush the system.

engine ice is premixed
