Dear Colleagues: I am planing to change the coolant in my KLX, however here where I live, there are not too much options.
In that way the two options I have in this moment are a green local coolant and Havoline Dex-cool, however the local is a black box and I have not too much information about if it is silicate free or if it is aluminium friendly. The Dex-cool back in the 2006 was accused of damaging GM cooling sytems. In that way not sure wich one to use.
Did any of you guys had use Dex-cool (the orange thing) in your bikes??.
Any recommendation?.
Thank you guys!!.

I've use Dex-Cool in all five of my bikes for several years with no ill effects.
Do not mix Dex Cool (orange) with other types of anti-freeze and it should be changed every 3 years.
