twelsh176 · 07-21-2012, 01:36 PM

How much water wetter do i add to my 2004 CBR1000.
on 90 deg plus days it will be at 202-210 while driving in town then at stop lights jumps u up to 225-230. Note i know that's not over heating.
Thanks all,
Taylor

I would recommend following the directions on the bottle.

There are directions on the bottle. It is a good idea to completely flush out all the old coolant before adding water wetter. I did not see much difference in engine temp in my CBR929 by switching to water wetter. I did it in order to abide by track regulations for NO COOLANT AT ALL.

That's what I've been running on my bike year round, but moving to Boise I will have to change over to actual anti-freeze for the winter.

I use Engine Ice. I haven't changed the R6 over yet, ran it in my F2 worked great and it still has freeze protection. Miller unfortnately is the only tack that wont let you run it. At least as far as I know they are. Water wetter is a great product especially for track bikes.
