I had some overheating problems earlier this year & amongst other things I added Water Wetter to the coolant.

I did a little unscientific before & after test , I ran it up to the temp which the fans kicked in. The fresh coolant (Shell Advance premixed) helped it straight away. Then I put in Water Wetter, and the next day ran it up again. It took longer to warm up enough for the fans to kick in and then when they did, the temp dropped quicker.

I would say the bike runs 10 deg C cooler at the top of the temp range now.

There have been some questions asked about wether Water Wetter can damage the cooling system, but I've never heard anyone actually come out and say "Yes, it ****ed my bike up!"

I'm happy with it.
