Step-by-Step Coolant Change Guide
- Cool and Secure Your Bike
Ensure the engine is completely cool to avoid burns from hot coolant or components. Place the TE300 on a stable stand. For better drainage, positioning the bike on its side stand may help. - Remove Plastics (If Needed)
Depending on your setup, you might need to remove side shrouds or the skid plate for easier access to the radiator and drain bolt. Use an Allen or socket as required. - Access the Radiator Cap
Find the radiator cap at the top of the left radiator. Remove the cap slowly to release pressurenever open it while hot. - Drain the Old Coolant
Locate the coolant drain bolt on the water pump (usually at the lowest point on the right side of the engine case). Place your catching container beneath, then fully remove the drain bolt.
To speed up draining, make sure the radiator cap is open. Allow all coolant to completely drain from both radiators. - Flush the System (Recommended)
For a thorough flush, reinstall the drain bolt, fill the system with distilled water, replace the cap, and briefly run the engine long enough to circulate. Repeat the drain process, ensuring all water and debris are cleared. - Inspect & Replace the Drain Bolt
Check the washer/O-ring on the drain bolt for wear. Replace if necessary, then reinstall the bolt and tighten securely but do not overtighten. - Add New Coolant
Using a funnel, fill the radiator with the recommended volume of fresh coolant until visible in the fill neck. Move the bike side to side gently to help remove air pockets. - Bleed Air Bubbles
Leave the radiator cap off. Start the bike and let it idle for a few minutes, watching as air bubbles escape. Top up coolant as necessary. Shut off and allow the bike to cool before securing the cap. - Final Checks
Inspect for leaks at the drain bolt and around radiator hoses. After one ride, check coolant level againtop up if necessary. Clean up any spilled coolant. Proper disposal of old coolant is required; do not pour it onto the ground.
