Yeah my mechanic has confirm this. He said NEX is the rarer one. SAMCO can get but he said must see bike model. I for once didn't know that coolant hoses also got cater for different bikes. I always had the impression that it's one size fits all kind of concept.

Hmm yeah I wanna know also but I've checked with my friend who's using Engine Ice, he said that his bike (GIX K8 1000) cools down much faster & on hot afternoon his bike temperature usually escalates between 90 - 95 as compared to 97 -99 on his previous coolant.

 

However he told me that it's better to properly flush my current coolant with water & vinegar (if I heard correctly!). I ask him why vinegar & he told me his mechanic does just that while flushing his coolant, his mechanic didn't say anything but as my friend trusted his mechanic, he allowed it to be fix that way. Hmmm I think these mechanics have like a trade secret something that we don't know.

 

Must ask my mechanic if he does have any vinegar in his place heheheh!

Vineger actually i think is to prevent corrosion of the radiator. So to say. But to me its proven no use. Hahaha....

Fair enough as u've experience it first hand. But nonethless I'm willing to try it out based on my friends review lah. Just curious Ah Gui what bike were u riding when you had that Engine Ice on?

No idea..... got to check it out yourself...

i still think, things like this differ from one user to another as we have different expectations & its(outcome) varies from one bike to another.

So its really up to u.

Just go on & try it out yourself, then, judge for yourself.

Ultimately, it is ur bike & if the bike feel good, you will feel better.

 

just my 2cents worth only.

Hey don't worry Bull & Gui, I'm willing to give it a try though. Just wanna take precaution that's all with all opinions. At least if I jump I know that it's going to be salt water or fresh water. Salt water got sharks, fresh water got piranhas. Like Bull said different riders varies in our expectations & outcomes...

I have the similar experience as Ah Gui has mention. Its on my bros bike. But the reason is being that the whole system is not flushed properly. We just drain it. But its not the proper way. There is still a sump of existing water or coolant still lurking under the cooling system which you need a blower to pump it out.

 

Engine ice is not suppose to mix with any other solvent i think all of you knw that.

 

But well last time i used it on my S4 that was quite long ago which engine ice cost $45 per bottle. And that was real good. But now selling at $30 hmmmmmmmm well i dunno. Like wat Ah Gui say try it then you knw.

 

My brother recently had his system flush the proper way and installed with Engine Ice again. Lets see wats his review when i ask him tonite.
