    After draining original rad fluid, I filled with distilled water and ran it for a few minutes. Then I drained the distilled water to help flush out the old fluid. Then filled with Engine Ice, its pre-mixed.

    Exactly! You can get a bottle of pre-mix at any local dealer that is made specifically for motorcycles, Easy, cheap and no worries.

    I`ve never understood why people worry about mixing anything when they make it so idiot proof.
