I thought Id post up a friendly winter reminder.
If you run a non-glycol based coolant in your motor (example: Water + Water Wetter/mo-cool etc)

You will want to make sure to drain it and refill with a good antifreeze for the winter temps. Otherwise you run the real risk of water freezing in the motor and cracking stuff.

if youre not sure if your coolant has antifreeze protection, either find out or drain and refill with antifreeze anyways to be sure.

Cracked block = $$$$$$$$

tell all your friends! :thumbup:

Have you ever seen the pics of people with their motorcycles in bed with them? Paul has said he would kick me outta bed to put his bike in bed. :shifty: Your post reminds me of his comments, lol!

My bikes used to live in my dining room.



Until the ex landlord peaked in my windows and told me to take them out.


Yeah, I really wanted my bikes sitting outside when I lived across the street from tweaker central. So glad I don't live there anymore.
