What antifreeze do i use in an 1986 1200 goldwing interstate ?

 

[Bryanlj]

50/50 glycol antifreeze and distilled or deionised water

 

[redwing52]

Ethylene Glycol. The green stuff..

I always use Honda pre mixed anti freeze, it's not expensive and you only do it every other year.

Go to your local Honda car dealer and buy it by the gallon. About half the price of the Honda Motorcycle dealer.

Evans waterless coolant for the past 17 yrs

 

[Bike...and Dennis]

I use Valvoline brand, specifically made for Honda, Hyundai, Nissan, Toyota etc.
It is, of course, silicate free, which is the most important feature you should be looking for.
Silicates eat water pumps.

Walmart "supertech" LOW SILICATE"

 

[Bike...and Dennis]

LOW is different than NO.

 

[roscoepc]

I believe "Low" silicates means that there are silicates STILL in it so I would NOT use it......

 

[AZgl1800]

it MUST SAY, Silicate FREE.

it is your bike, but unless you want to replace the water pump and radiator, stick solely to "Silicate Free"

I am with Dennis, I use the Valvoline brand from Wal Mart also. I have it in both of my wings and quads.

Or just go to your nearest Honda car dealer and buy a gallon of the real thing, not that there is anything wrong with most major brands.

That's what I said in post 5. That's where mine comes from. Less than $20 gallon vs $6-$7 a quart.
