Hi Mike! This video helped me to change my coolant from my R1. I was not finding the drain, but thank you very much for posting this video in step by step. I am subscribing to your channel. I am from Brazil. Congratulations. ✌👊✊✊✊
You almost had it all, unfortunately you didn't burp the air out of your system. You can do that by leaving the cap of starting the bike and give it little throttle few times let it run for 1 min and all the air should be let out the top. Then after first ride check the coolant level again. Bamooo
I would have also properly flushed it out. Unless the thermostat opens up, you'll still have old coolant in that section of the radiatior hose loop. You could add another step to fill completely with de-ionised water and get up to temperature which will clean out the bits missed. Then drain once more when cool and then top up with coolant (Blipping to remove air bubbles) Nice video all the same
From my 2009 manual Radiator capacity (including all routes) 2.73 L (2.89 US qt, 2.40 imp qt) Coolant reservoir capacity (up to the maximum level mark) 0.25 L (0.26 US qt, 0.22 imp, qt)
can this be done the same way to my 13 fz8? and is it necessary to use yamalube? i called the dealer and the service guy said any 50-50 will work fine. I just want it done proper. also what is the better battery for the FZ8 2013 i just wanna grab one soon i found some sick deals on yuasa and shorai's...oh brake fluid dot4 cool? and the bike is on mobil 1 10-40 with k&n filter but can you answer the rest please? what number octane do you run 93?
Any time after you ride there will be a time when the temp gets hotter for a bit then will start to cool down. Once you turn it off the fan and coolant are no longer cooling the bike so for a bit of time it will get hotter. It's normal. It will cool after the engine starts to cool off.
James Jones just seems absurd and engine ice is only good for 256 degrees. Even after a full flush temps still get up there, thinking about ditching the cross plane, too many quirks for a slower bike
@@davidstancu2963 with the new engine they sacrificed a little of top speed to give better low end and mid range. Honestly I love it. Noone really lives in high range much unless your drag racing or on a track with a long straight. The bike is made to put down power smooth and fast while turning and exiting corners.

No burping the system? I always burp the system after adding new coolant to get the air out.
what do you mean by burping the system?
Always cool when these are done
for reference for other Riders,
Well Done Mike12r1 !!!
Then again, it's Nice to have an air-cooled Ducati...
;)

Yeah that's what I thought too.
Nice mate. I don't even have a R1 and still I found this amusing. good job! ;)
A tip: you can watch series at Flixzone. I've been using them for watching a lot of movies these days.
@Cameron Jesus Yup, I've been using flixzone for months myself =)
@Cameron Jesus Yup, I've been using Flixzone for since november myself :D
very thorough and well filmed "how to". good job!
Kawal dobrego poradnika na pewno komus sie przyda. Piona:)
Thank you very much for this vid. Do you also have a vid for changing the sparkplugs on the same bike?

Finally something in emglish ;) dobra robota hehe
Also can pay to flush it through with abit of water aswell after you drop the coolant! Great vid!
Yes but with distilled water
Is it a Yamaha thing to change the radiator fluid every so many killometers? Usually you change it yearly?
Why do you take out the coolant and put water instead? Isn't it better with cooland because it has a higher boiling temp?
Dobry poradnik :)
Cześć MIKE widze ze sezonu jeszcze nie kończysz :-) pozdrawiam
Is this the same on the R125?
thanks for the vid. very descriptive
Hello Mike - What is the coolant capacity on the R1. I have a 2013 R1, not sure if it matters.. Just want to make sure I prepare the mix accurately.
Fill until it reaches the top.
From my 2009 manual
Radiator capacity (including all routes) 2.73 L (2.89 US qt, 2.40 imp qt)
Coolant reservoir capacity (up to the maximum level mark) 0.25 L (0.26 US qt, 0.22 imp, qt)
Thanks man...Great video!!!!
Doesn't the coolant drain plug have a washer Gasket to replace?
Poradnik 1 klasa! :)
Łapa w górę, pozdro!
Why just for winter? are you afraid if will freeze and damage something?
You leave water in it during the winter and not antifreeze the water will freeze in engine and crack the block
Good coolant changed
Lol,mam zestaw identycznych lejków :D Ile chłodziwa około mieści układ chłodzący w R1?
Awesome video!!!
Good vid big dog!!!
Good informative vid !! make more vids like this bro !
May i ask why after i change my r1 coolant. the temp is high than before.
When i fill up the coolant.theres no air bubbles. But when stary the temp is high.. or just let high till the fan is on ?
aaa so nice to have an air cooled bike
Wszystko spoko, ale moim zdaniem musisz zainwestować w dobre wkrętaki imbusowe a nie się takim ogryzkiem męczysz. Pozdro Majk!
To moto wygląda jak nowe z salonu :D

Mike, muito bom esse vídeo, acompanho o teu canal direto aqui no Brasil,
Abraços!
Bardzo ładnie
What's that outro song?
Nice job bro! LwG
Nawet na Amerykańskim kanale Michała Polacy szybciej je oglądają :)
why do you use water?
uhhh i just realized i only have 2 tubes at the kickstand you have 3 : /
I need to locate the thermostat on my 2000Yamaha yzf r1,can anyone help
When the bike is turned off after riding and put the key in the temps almost get up to 250!! Help

got air in their my guy, even in 90 degree weather mine only gets to 235, fans kick on or already on bring it back to 213 just at idle
wy r u drive it on water
woda osadza w układzie kamień powinno sie stosowac tylko plyn chlodniczy
Pozdro
To fakt,ale woda lepiej chłodzi :)
Zawsze można kupić wodę destylowaną :) Nawet w PL jest sprzedawana w 5-cio litrowych butelkach.
Cóż to za moto w tle? :)
Czemu woda na lato?
Nie na lato tylko takie są wymogi żeby jeździć na torze :)
The coolant reservoir cap wasnt fitted properly please go to someone who can do it right to save your bike !
What do you mean? Looking into changing mine and need to know the proper way.
@@nirvashtypezero9185 5:44 the cap came off and it was not fitted corect and he aint fitting it perfect again... backside is not correct.
