They say on their site that it is life or no change needed for the life of he engine.

But need to flush with a prep fluid.

Works for temps -40 to 190 Celsius.

So no more boiling. And some other benefits I have forgotten.

Sorry cant copy and paste successfully as using phone to access the net.

Dunno on price as you have to chase up a local dealer.

Sound interesting. Might get some and try in the Kubota. A little bit of hard work and she starts boiling.

Have a range to suit cars, diesels and bikes both track and trail.

Sounds like its the go.

Also looked at some antiwear stuff advertised in a 4wd book the old man has. But not suited for wet clutches. Would work in bikes with separate gear and engine oil.

They reckon it’s the go to add some to 2T fuel though.

If only I had a smoker :p id try some.

I have been runing the Evens waterless coolent for the past 3.5 years in 2 bikes. First bike was a CRF450X. It wasn’t to bad but would get hot riding with Murph and Tim on there tracks. So got some Evens. Never cooked it EVER EVER again and never put a drop of coolent in it. I even cooked the clutch without cooking the motor once. New clutch was needed. I put 300 hrs on that bike with the Even’s coolent.

2nd bike is my KTM200EXC. Again l run normal coolend untill again riding with Murph & Tim. Cooked it in a creek track. I have put Even’s in it also and have never cooked it again and l am giving it a good workout in the creek tracks and at Stoction sand dunes in the soft sand.

I run the Even’s NPG’R and buy is from Bert Flood Imports, Vic. http://www.bertfloodimports.com.au/

It cost about $170.00 delivered for 4L of prep fluid and 4L of Even’s waterless NPG’R.That’s enough to do 2 bikes easy with spare coolend left over.

The coolend is only $50 but the prep fluid is expensive. You only need to prep the bike once. After that you just need coolent if needed after damage as long as you haven’t added any water to the system.

Yes it is does cost a bit but is way cheeper then a engine rebuild.

Just my thoughts and experience.

Wow that is expensive. :pinch:
But like ya said, Thrillseeker, cheaper than a rebuild. :sick:
My 500 was hissing even with the thermo fan working on our last outing. :huh:
May have to look into it.

Haha Murph.

That creek track is a killer. You would need 4 fans to keep that 500 cool in there.

When are we riding it again? Or should l say, trying to ride it again.

Might not need any now. Heard a bang and noticed I blew the top out of the radiator. Looks like an easy fix. 99% of the veins blocked so a good clean should fix the overheating
