engine ice ice baby

[teamorion22]

so i flushed the radiator twice with distilled water then put the engine ice in and swang my bike back and forth and tapped on the radiator and hoses in an effort 2 get the air out. Here's my question. There is no way i got all the air out by doing this. Is the little bit of air that is still in there ok? Is there anything i should be looking for or keep my eye on?
thanks
michael

lean the bike side to side as best as you can.....start it up .....drive it for a few minutes and let pressure build up and then cool down....check it again.

You can also squeeze the hoses to push the air up to the top. Cycle the bike a few times, rock her back and forth and squeeze the hoses a few times and you should be all set. After that take her for a spin, bring her back and top off the fluid.

watch you overfill bottle after you run it a couple of times.
