The flat-rate motorcycle inspection was completed the other day, so
we’re changing the fluids.
Brake fluid, engine oil, and coolant.
With a water-cooled bike, you want to change it about once a year.
Draining the water lets you check some surprisingly useful things.
The amount of rust, its color, whether engine oil has mixed in—
This bike actually had that happen in the past, where oil mixed in and the engine went kaput. Scary stuff.
All done today!
