Sorry the delay in answering busy at university. But thank you all for your answers. The bike will be going in for a service in January plus a set of nice new tyres. One question. Coolant the engine seems to get hot very fast ten minutes and it's close to 100c. Going to take the front faring off (once i figure out how it comes off) to check the radiator level make sure it's full. I have had the patrol tank up but can only see the top of the reservoir so can't see if anything is in. Dose it pull out or am I missing something.

And if needed what coolant is used i am guessing it's not going to be distilled water and antifreeze nowadays.
