Hi all,
My plugs and used R1 coils arrived yesterday. I decided to do the change myself seeing as though the mechanic wanted to charge me $165 just to change the plugs. I thought that was a bit excessive..
Anyways, I was hoping to replace it without removing the radiator hose but even with the small hands, I was struggle to get access to the inner coils... I installed the AIS plates too... very tight and too ages to do... that gave me some extra room...
When I drained the coolant, it was bronish green colour... Can anyone guess how old that would have been? Bike has 25000kms on it... I bought it at 22000km so I assume that it make be the same coolant from brand new yeah?
I have to buy some distill water now... I purchased coolant bottle for my daytona 675 but never used it... do you think that would be ok to use on the FZ1? Coolant is coolant yeah?
