lowbrow Posted January 22, 2019 Report Share Posted January 22, 2019 It is easy. All I did with mine was fill the radiator, before lifting the front wheel as high as I could to release air trapped in the water pump and its hoses. Then with the bike level I topped up the radiator again. Do not tighten the radiator cap more than finger tight. Run the motor until the fan comes on and check the coolant level again when cool.

tcrhino Posted January 22, 2019 Report Share Posted January 22, 2019 What might help; the cylinder head cover has a brass bolt to release trapped air. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't see a bolt specifically made to bleed the system.... Are you referring to the water temperature sensor? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tcrhino Posted May 12, 2019 Report Share Posted May 12, 2019 On my 2017 Ice Hell there is no temperature sensor in the cylinder head, just a brass bolt. Of course the sensor can be loosened to get the air out Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
