Robik Posted July 4, 2013 Author Posted July 4, 2013 Distilled water and antifreeze in the correct ratio........if you use tap water it can fur up the waterways in the engine.....much like your kettle furs up.......and don't forget that antifreeze also helps the cooling system......so it keeps the bike cooler in summer too...... Ah I see, the coolant stuff I have is premixed ready to pour. Thanks for that Tango. Quote
megawatt Posted July 4, 2013 Posted July 4, 2013 Can't remember what the mixture is , but I followed the Kseal instructions to the letter and have had no cooling/leakage problems since. Quote
Robik Posted July 4, 2013 Author Posted July 4, 2013 I really hope I have the same success with it! Quote
Robik Posted July 9, 2013 Author Posted July 9, 2013 Hi all,Thought I would post my results, poured the k-seal in and looks like it has stopped the leak!! Thanks for all your help everyone! Quote
eastanglianbiker Posted July 9, 2013 Posted July 9, 2013 well done for sorting it yourself and saving a few ££££££ glad its all working fine now just keep a regular eye on both coolant levels and oil levels as they can both vanish quickly and regular checks will prevent serious engine damage possibly occouring Quote
Robik Posted July 9, 2013 Author Posted July 9, 2013 Thanks! I shall keep a eye on it, appreciate the help and advice. Quote
Guest Posted October 27, 2016 Posted October 27, 2016 I'm glad for Megawatt; I hear that sometimes this stuff works. My story is different:The radiator on my Honda CBF600 sprung a leak. After much reading around online, I settled on KSeal. The next few uses (18 mile commute) more bike overheated - I now need the head skimmed & a new head gasket, as well as a new radiator.So my advice - avoid! Quote
Grumpy Old Git Posted October 27, 2016 Posted October 27, 2016 I've also used K-Seal before to good effect as well as having an old radiator re-cored (cheaper than I had thought!).I tend to use distilled water mixed with undiluted anti-freeze as a coolant mix (to prevent lime scale build up). Quote
fq-craigus Posted October 27, 2016 Posted October 27, 2016 Lol its a revival. I would be worried if it's not fixed by now Sent from my SM-G930F using Tapatalk Quote
RantMachine Posted October 27, 2016 Posted October 27, 2016 Well, if he didn't fix it then at least he passed the problem on to someone elsehttp://themotorbikeforum.co.uk/viewtopic.php?f=7&t=59421&p=921435#p921435 Quote
