Hello. And a question ?
« on: May 14, 2006, 01:43:02 PM »
Hello all.
Ive recently got a 400 bandit and am a bit worried about the cooling system. Is it a sealed system or do i have to put water-coolant in ?
I have been looking at the bike today and have noticed a bottle under the seat next to the rear brake reservoir.
Did someone mention a manual, which i can download too.
Thanks.
Rod.

Service manual d/l is in the MEMBER'S section.

The cooling system isn't sealed and like anything water cooled should have the coolant changed periodically.
