Default It's FREEZING outside soooo.....

I was wondering where do I put the antifreeze in my bike at? I've looked all over my scoot and can't figure out where the antifreeze goes. I have the service manual, but my dog ate some pages and I've been following him around with a trash bag until he "gives them back" to me.

Any help would be greatly appreciated. 50/50 or 60/40?[&:]

Don't tell me you've been bit by the cold weather bug. I would just buy a new manual instead of following the dog around[:'(]

Kevin, your bike is looking sweet bro! Where do you put the antifreeze at on your bike? It should be in the same place as mine.....eh?

Jason, do you have the download I can borrow on where this stuff goes on my bike? I don't want to lose a freeze plug because of my stupidity.[&:]

I would be very careful mixing different types a chemicals. For this time of year I use 7 & 7....try a 50 50 mix and first thing you know its summer time!!

Just put on some ski clothes... You'll be fine. They have NEW anti freeze reserviors at the stealer. They can show you where it goes. [8D]

You might not need to add any. I suggest you check your anti freeze gague.

I just poured some on the outside of my cylinders for now.......will this be ok?

Help is on the way, I think the dog is about to deliver, he's haunched over like he has one stuck sideways. His eyes are crossed too.
