This is also known as the radiator overflow tank or coolant bottle. It is made of plastic and has been known to break or crack. It is easy to remove, repair and install. On the 2006 VTX 1800 there is a chrome cover on the left side of the bike between the cylinders, just across from where the air cleaner is on the right side of the bike. The overflow tank is just behind this cover. On the 2004 model of the VTX this tank is located in front of the rear wheel. As a result of a design change in 2006, the fuel pump was moved from inside the gas tank and was placed between the swing arm and the crankcase close to the oil filter where the coolant overflow tank had been. Because of this a new place had to be found for the coolant overflow tank and it was placed between the cylinders on the left side of the bike in later models. In case these tanks break or crack they can often be repaired by using plastic epoxy glue. In some cases, provided the area is clean, it is possible to repair the cracked tank without removing it. However, it is easy to remove once you have removed the outer chrome cover. The tank is a bit irregular in shape and fits snugly in its place. The tubing leading to it has to be removed as well.
Well, no. But its normal for the float in the carb to get get stuck and cause the gas to overflow through the overflow tube.
Regular bike coolant will work just fine. That is what I use.
you should use coolant, therefore your bike will run cooler, the lower the engine temperature the better
race bikes are cooled by air air circulation but in sports bike they are cooled by oil coolant
Stand the bike upright and examine the coolant gauge.
The float is stuck or dirty. Bounce the bike up and down a few times to far the float loose. If this doesnt work the float is dirty
Hold the bike level and check the coolant bottle behind the lower left fairing.
It's small-wheeled folding bike with a fairly good reputation. Popular in UK where people bring it on the trains.
