Just changed my coolant. I removed the hoses connected to the radiator and a bunch of the old coolant came out as well. I flushed three times with distilled water. I ended having to buy another container of engine ice. I used about a quarter of it.
Good point, any low places in the lines will trap coolant. The more you can remove before flushing with water and cycling the engine the better. I also ended up needing a second container of engine ice to top things off after a few heat cycles. Thanks for the comment!
I thought taking the 4 piece fairing set off my R6 was bad enough trying to get to the reservoir, but to have to remove/lift up the tank? Damn. Thanks for posting. I've always wanted an 03/04 636
To be honest I would rather deal with the fuel tank. I had on 03 R6 a while back and the way they designed the belly pan to fit together under the bike gave me nightmares. lol
This video is in very much detail I love it , I have a 09 model, bought a few weeks again, Im hoping to change the coolant soon My bike has the same jug I noticed from looking through fairings but it’s broken idk wat it is 🤷🏽♂️
Thanks, you helped me flush and replace mine today. Appreciate the info.
Excellent job! Big like

At 2:42 what’s that little clear jug you have pinched off to your hose?
I'm honestly not sure what that's called, but it's OEM. Has always been hanging right there.
