Good Afternoon To All,

I emailed the good folks at Prestone about using their new Cor-Guard formula in water cooled motorcycles. My bike is a 2001 Honda Valkyrie, the manual says to use Ethylene Glycol, no silicates and here is the response from Prestone:


Good Afternoon Frank,

No, that product does not contain any silicates and is recommended for use in all water-cooled motorcycle applications. Please let me know if you require anything further.

Sincerely,

I've been paying about $28 for the Honda coolant for the gallon at the car dealerships, but Walmart sells the Prestone product I believe for $10-$11 for a gallon of the pre-mixed.

I will be switching over.

Thought this info would be helpful to post.

Hi BC,

I've seen Prestone in the past list no silicates, but on their new formulation, on the container, it didn't state that, so that's why I checked.

It seems today you almost need a degree in chemistry to understand all these "coolant" options.

No need to worry about it. The chemists who make these coolant cocktails don't know that much about it either.
