Don't forget to ,"Burp" the system. The procedure is in the WSM. Basically sit on the bike with the engine running and keep an eye on the coolant level in the rad. When the thermostat opens the coolant will flow around. Holding the bars and moving the bike left and right will allow air in the system to come to the top and escape. Failure to do so can cause engine over heating.

I recently changed over to this OAT coolant and have used other Mannol products,

Full gallon delivered to the door. It has lowered my running temps by between 5 to 8 Deg C from my old silicate free car Glycol coolant I used to use.
