Ok gotcha! Lol. Yes good advice I agree. I just got back from an hour long ride and no leaks of as of yet however I'm not used to a bike running so hot. My rear end is soaking. I definitely don't have that issue on my softail. I honestly thought the heated seat must have been on but it wasn't. I certainly sweat like a pig on this bike.

Do all the 110s get hot like this?

 

Well to update ...I've ridden for at least 3-4 hours per day for the last 3 days and as of yet there are zero coolant leaks so looks like the Rad cap may have been the culprit!. I hope it stays that way. Thanks Keithhu.

 

So back to this thread again....I was trying to adjust the slide mechanism for the lowers vent door ( they are really stiff to slide and no matter how much I sprayed the slide it's still stiff ) and I noticed that the coolant level has dropped quite a bit since I started this thread. I haven't seen any leaks whatsoever so where the heck is the coolant going and I assume it doesn't have to be specifically HD coolant if I want to add to bring it to proper level. The droplets in the photo is the spray lubricant not coolant.

 

Yeah I would not use that at all. You would be far better using distilled or unopened drinking bottled water to get by if you are broke or don’t have the proper HD coolant.

 

Do not mix coolants ! Might make a muddy mess.
Your coolant level may be low due to having air in the system. The level will drop down a couple of times after changing it sometimes until all the air has been purged from the system.
Buy the HD coolant and keep adding until it levels off.

 

Awesome ... thanks... I'll stop at the stealer tomorrow and grab some coolant. Never knew that coolant couldn't be mixed from one brand to the next.
