COOLANT EXPANSION TANK HOSE ROUTING

Post by Rotorwrench »

I just wanted to pass some info to you all.  My coolant level was low on the 2015 RT so I pulled the tupperware off to top it off.  As I was snooping around, I noticed that the lower expansion tank hose was twisted causing a kink in the hose.  I pulled the tank off, turned it 360 degrees and the hose returned to normal.  So the next time you are in that area take a good look at that lower hose for correct routing. It must have been a Friday build.

Great tip.  I wonder if your bike has been running a few degrees hot since day 1.
