By bike isn't stored in a heated garage so it will be exposed to freezing temps this winter. I think i will add some antifreeze to be safe.
I wonder if the RV antifreeze would be better, easy to flush back out and safe if spilled.

hmm, nobody had any in the spring when i checked. maybe they were just out. good to know though.  yeah, it's definitely a little on the pricey side, but then again so is my motor. if it keeps it a few degrees cooler when ripping around it's worth it though. i don't think the bike needs it for the street but the quad can use all the help it can get. it sounds like a good idea for a track ho though too.

I run water/water wetter in the street bike and I'll probably go back to the same in the track bike in the spring - just a courtesy thing at the track.
