Hi, la temperatura mas o menos 160 ⁰F y el tiempo aprox 5mins , pero tener cuidado que no llegue a temperatura extrema, es mejor dejar apagado el motor y que saque todas las burbujas posibles y revisar de nuevo el nivel correcto!
Don't you know there is a coolant drain plug on the bottom of each cylinder? You have lots of remaining water in the cylinders when you don't open them and, later on, highly diluted antifreeze with a much higher freezing point. And the water remaining in your cooling system is hard tap water which leads to scale build-up in the cooling system. There's absolutely no point in removing the coolers and the thermostat. You just need to open the hose of the left cooler to remove the little bit of remaining water it holds. With this video you're misleading people and don't do them a favor. And I think you didn't do your GS a favor either with this work. She would, most likely, be better off with the old coolant. Sorry but I had to say that. Greetings from Graz, Austria
Amigão o ar do sistema você tira através de apertar as mangueiras e ligar o motor sem a tampa do radiador para tirar as bolhas de ar????????, obrigado 👍🏻👍🏻😎
Hello and thanks for your comment, yes that is the easy way to get out all the air in the system or with a vacuum pump and compressed air, making sure is no air bubles . Thank you!
@@robsteal3887 - made me wonder if he added water separately later. But even in that case I think best to pre-mix and you know exactly what the amounts of each are.
Strange, I own an 1250 rt and I asked my dealer, when are you gonna change the coolant ? He answered me the coolant rest a life time, on my previous honda and yamaha bikes they changed the coolant every 2 years
@@baden-baden Awesome! Thanks for the great video and quick response! I’m about to change the coolant in my R 1200 R for the first time and I wanted to make sure I was doing it right (full flush and no air lock). Thanks!
😮😮😮😮 Did you know that there are two drain plugs at the bottom of the engine which enables you to drain all the coolant from the radiators ... i’m sorry but this is a very bad example on how to change your coolant 🥺🥺🥺
Your video failed the moment I seen you are using tap water to flush the system....now you left all the minerals to eat away corrode. Distilled water flush ONLY
I don't think a minute of water will cause any issues. It was filled with proper coolant later so any residue of water will be removed. Another story if refilled with tap water.
Thank you for sharing another great maintenance video! Another one for my collection!! 👍👍
Thanks so much for watching and support my channel !!
Beautiful edits, and nice tutorial! Thank you for the information ;)
Thanks for watching!!
Wow. That looks like a job for an experienced mechanic - not sure I would have the confidence to do it with my bike. Great video though!
BMW love to make simple jobs as difficult as possible so you don't do them and they can charge a fortune for the repair 🤣
Ottimo lavoro!
Good job!!
Great job! Thorough.
Thanks !!
Great work…💪🏻
Thanks
had to show the bmw!❤️
9:50 hola, cuánto tiempo o hasta que temperatura hay que encender el motor??

Thanks for your comment, I made another video with that specs , I will try to public it.
@@baden-baden Thank you! That's a great attitude.
You're supposed to dilute that not pour it in straight, it's concentrated, says that on the label.

I may have missed something but did you mix the anti-freeze with distilled water at 50/50 or put it in full concentrate?
That's exactly what I was wondering
He screw up, didn't mix it with water, poured it in straight.
@@robsteal3887 - made me wonder if he added water separately later. But even in that case I think best to pre-mix and you know exactly what the amounts of each are.
Do I need to do that just to top up?
Yes, and make sure is not air bubbles on the system.
Thanks !

Yeah, it is optional maintenance service always
Well, nothing lasts a lifetime
Hi, could you help me out , I’m trying to figure out what kind of antifreeze/coolant do I need for the R1200R? Thank you!
I used pentosin coolant and you can find it on Amazon, just check the specs on the add for sale.
Thanks
After how many miles do you have to do this
Hi,
I like to say every 2 years or 24k miles.
Thanks for watching
Not gonna use tap water. I just drained the radiators and refilled ran hot waited and drained again then refilled. And the overflow bottle.
Thank you!
When you flushed the engine block were you able to get all the tap water out before reassembly and coolant refill?
Yes, you can use a air blower with compressed air or vacuum tool, I didn't show that part on the clip.
Thanks

Muito bem explicativo o vídeo. Moto bem cuidada
Thank you , best regards !!
It should be take of seat, screw of cap, fill with coolant..... Only BMW could turn it into such a faff
You left water in the block
I did the heads drained, but that video clip was corrupted and damaged...sorry for the confusion!
