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. |

Madski, I don't know of any local shops that carry Engine Ice, but you could always call around. I ordered mine along with some other parts from Rocky Mountain ATV/MC. I've been dealing with them for about 8 years with no problems whatsoever. It's the best price I found for it at that time. http://www.rockymountainatv.com/productDetail.do?&navType=type&webTypeId=41&navTitle=Chemicals&webCatId=23&prodFamilyId=339 |

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. |
