Howdy,
Well, it's time...time to prep my FJR for shipment to Italy. I'm told by the shipping folks that I need to drain all the fluids (oil, coolant and fuel). Draining the oil is no problem and I can either ride the bike until it's empty or siphon the fuel out (I suppose I could drain it by removing the hose from under the tank as well).
Draining the coolant has me a bit anxious though...anyone have experience with this operation? I have a service manual and I'm mechanically competent, but my fun meter runs out of coins relatively quickly with tedious stuff.
So, am I going to erupt into a cursing rage or will draining the coolant prove a simple task?
What say you?
