Has anyone done a coolant change on a TT600?.I dropped my machine on a patch of oil.and lost some coolant.Took the fairing off and there was no obvious leak.On talking to a dealer ,he seemed to think I have a airlock in the cooling system and when the bike is run up to temp it fills the header tank and overflows,so I reckon he,s right.as i have a prob ,thought I would change the coolant anyway. So whats the proceedure.IE drain point? how to refill without causing another air lock. :wink:

Burp the system by squeezing the hoses and fill it slowly.
