Title: Trying To Add Coolant to B&W 250
Post by: Togger on April 04, 2015, 05:46:44 PM

I want to top off the coolant on my scooter, because the level in the reserve tank window is just above the low line. Should I add the coolant to the reserve tank or the radiator? Also, is it hard to get to either. The manual says to take off the front cover, but it doesn't look easy.

Personally,  I usually fill the reserve tank.  Sometimes it's hard to do that.  But removing the Front Cowl is even harder.  There are usually self tapping screws in the cowl and the studs can strip out with repeated removal.  As long as you have some liquid in the reserve,  it should not be an issue.

Both reserve and the bottle are easy to get to in the B&W. Just 4 screws to take off the upper front cover and gain access to both. Make sure to add coolant to the radiator when cold.
