Megawatt what do you mean ffs if you cant answer a question then maybe your best keeping your opinions to yourself mate.

Thankfully the battery is off the bike so it's not acid so maybe it's just water from washing it but it just streamed off the bottom radiator that had me thinking it was a leak but it was clear with no smell. Also would the water level drop if it was leaking or would it have to be running first to pump around the system before it dropped down? The level is ok in the reservoir tank but I've not started her up yet so will check all levels again in the morning.

That's what I thought but it was clear with no smell so will try the taste test tomorrow. Thanks.

Hi folks, I'm in the middle of sorting out a tlr I've just bought. I have removed all the fairing to get the nose cone repaired so thought I would give it a clean with some degreaser before applying acf50 ready for storage over the winter months. Now this may sound stupid but I'm not sure if I have a radiator leak but when I took the bike off the paddock stand after washing it and moved it into the garage it leaked lots of water on the bottom radiator r/h corner. I'm not sure if it's just water from washing it or if I caught the radiator while cleaning it but the water was clear and had no smell to it. I have checked the water level in reservoir bottle and it's full but when i removed the radiator pressure cap I didn't hear a hiss so I'm not sure if its water from washing or a leaking rad......any advice on how to check it? Thanks.

Cheers folks, I'm sure all will be good over the winter months with all the advice and tips on here. Think I will strip the fairing off, clean inside and use the acf 50 and fuel additive just to make sure shes ok. The fairing has a small crack that needs repairing on it so might aswell take it off too.

Thanks for all the advice and tips I have 5 litres of fuel in the tank, front and rear paddock stands In place, new yuasa battery with optimate fitted, recent service and oil change etc then I've cleaned and polished it and put a bike cover over it so fingers crossed it will be ok. I might add the fuel additive as mentioned to be on the safe side. Also has anyone used acf50 anti corrosion spray?

Morning all, I have just got a suzuki tlr which I'm going to keep in the garage till summer next year any advice on best storage methods or tips etc. The battery is fitted with a otomizer, has fuel in the tank and front & rear paddock stands too all cleaned and polished.....anything else need doing to it?
