[QUOTE="markjenn, post: 251080, member: 42"] I agree. There's way too much gospel thrown around on these forums about the need to do much more intensive or much more frequent service than is recommended by Yamaha without a shred of supporting data that it is at all necessary. I just did the coolant change an it was simple. I removed the panel covering the cap, removed the cap, drained the system at the water pump, and did three or four flush cycles with garden hose water until the system ran completely clear. Then put in about 2.5 qts of the Honda pre-mixed coolant, drained and refilled the recover tank, and was done. 30 minutes or so. I'm completely confident that if I do this every year (or even every two years), that I won't have any issues with the cooling system. - Mark [/QUOTE]
