Hi All,
A while back there was a post wherein someone was having a problem with constant boilovers. I believe that that they were eastern riders.
Anyhow, many options were discussed in the thread. I just wanted to post here that I have been running the Evans non aqueous ( no water) cooling fluid NPG-R. So far I have run into a situation or two that resembled our Easter bretheren's riding conditions out here in the sierra's @ 7000-9000' and had no boil over problems on both my Husaberg's while others around me were having boil over problems.
On my 04 I noticed that I do get a small amount of weeping through the weep hole of this coolant. Not enough to lower the coolant level, just enough for the dust to stick to just below the water pump housing. While my 01 501 had no weeping at all. I had recently had a few problems with my 04 water pump seal, so the Evans coolant could be totally unrelated but wanted to include all info here.
The Evans was $22 bucks a gallon delivered to my house, and seems to have been a very simple fix to the occasional boil over in extreme conditions. I'm planning on riding the 100's national Hare & Hound in a couple of weeks, where I'm sure there will be ample opportunity to boil over using conventional coolant. So, we'll see if the Evans keeps things under control. It should as it's not supposed to boil until 400 degree's @ 7 psi, @ sea level.
