NIce & easy to follow.... thanks for sharing, I always Burp / prime the hoses to get rid of trapped air, give all the soft hoses a squeeze to force out ant trapped air, run the bike then check & top up the coolant, also check the level after a few rides especially in summer :D

Yup I did those for the hoses but I guess didnt include it in the video heheh.............

First quick ride a few hours ago................the bike certainly runs cooler, like 10c cooler..........but tonight was also slightly cooler than previous nights. Ill keep an eye out for it on long rides and make sure levels are good.

Coolant change took me a while.......its the making it hit temp and waiting for it to cool down again that took a long time.
