First of all just wanted to say hi to all.
Please can anyone help me. I have a Street Triple 675R on a 12 plate that I'm trying to bleed the cooling system. I got just about all the old coolant out (approx 2.3 litres) the expansion bottle was on minimum when I started. When I refilled to flush out I only managed to get about 2.1 litres back in. I bled the radiator on the opposite side to the cap and also the top hose bleed screw just to the right of the radiator cap. I ran it up to temp and let it cool for a while. Dropped all the coolant again and repeated only to find that I can only get about 1.8 litres into it. I tried running and topping up as I go, squeezing the pipes etc. But still I can't get as much coolant in as I take out. Am I missing another bleed screw somewhere? I am measuring the coolant each time to compare so I know I must have air in there somewhere. Is there a sequence I need to follow? Please help. Thanks
I also forgot to add this is a very low mileage bike so the engine is very clean.
