[QUOTE="ELDORADO650, post: 11976, member: 228"] I have both - and Air Cooled XR650L and XR600, and a water cooled CR500AF. The air cooled bikes will ping when real hot - that is when it is time to let them cool down. It takes some slow rough stuff to get them that hot. The 500 used to boil all the time, especially at altitude and rough slow stuff ie: Horse Canyon going up. I changed it to Evans waterless coolant. I was told - it will get too hot, not cool well, cook your engine, blah, blah, blah. That was 5 years ago. I have had to do 1 top end in that time. It was tired from so many hours. Everything looked perfect. No heat damage apparant. I ride that thing hard, and no problems ever. With the Evans - I don't run a reservori anymore - since it never boils. Just my $.02 [/QUOTE]
