Please forgive the seeminly dumb question, but I do not know how to check the radiator for fluid level. Is there a sight gage? Where is the radiator cap?
No owners manual?
Thanks

The overflow bottle in under the left mid- fairing. If you take the inspection cover off you can see the bottle and a flashlight would help.

The above applies to the ST13. If you have an ST11, the overflow bottle will be on the right side. If it is an ABS model the bottle will be under the right middle faring toward the rear, but if it's a standard it will be located under the right side panel, just forward of the shock, instead.

So if I understand correct, you see it from the front of the bike looking up under the fairing. It is a 1300.

Easy?? way to check. Left side of the bike (as you sit on it). pull off tip over wing cover and look up at the rear of the motor. I found it hard to judge coolant level from the maintanance cover removal. Bike should be on centre stand and level
