Never underestimate the condition of the radiator because of the fatal consequences.
A radiator that is left to dry or not taken care of will cause the engine to drop.
Some engine components such as pistons will jam because the engine is hot, then cause the motorcycle to die and be difficult to start again. Then the water pump seal will burn. So that when the radiator fluid is filled, water can actually enter the engine room. So never underestimate a dry radiator.
Besides having to keep the radiator water from running out, said Yanu, another important thing to do is drain the radiator; This effort is made so that rust does not occur and deposits appear that can clog the radiator channels.
For automatic motorcycles in particular, the radiator is at the bottom and prone to getting dirty, so it must be cleaned frequently by spraying water so that the dirt is removed, but with a spray that is not too tight.
Radiator water is often just added not replaced. Therefore it is important to drain and clean the radiator of the old fluid, then refill it with new radiator water. This can be done once every 25,000, but it's better if 12,000 once.
Many automatic motorcycle owners are still ignorant of the function of the components on their mounts. One of them is a liquid-cooled automatic motor. The role of the radiator is often considered trivial, even though it has an important role for a motorcycle engine.
So when the engine is running, friction occurs between several components, such as the piston and cylinder block. Now that's so that the engine cooling is optimal, it is also assisted by the radiator water, in addition to the wind.
And when there is less radiator water, even to dry, the engine will overheat so it is dangerous for the components in the engine.
