BMW Motorcycle Radiators & Parts

The radiator plays a crucial role when it comes to keeping your motorcycle's engine running right. That's because the engine generates a tremendous amount of heat when you're out riding. If it weren't for the coolant that the radiator delivers, your engine would quickly overheat and you'd experience performance issues. Let the issue go too long without resolving it, and your engine will start to suffer significant damage.

How Radiators Work

The radiator sends liquid -- usually a mix of coolant and water -- to and from the engine via inlet and outlet hoses. That liquid flows through the engine, collects the building heat, and returns to the radiator. There, the heat is safely released through the radiator's fins and into the atmosphere. Newly cooled again, the fluid continues the process all over again.

How to Spot Radiator Problems

Eventually, though, even the best radiator can go bad over time. Signs of trouble include:

• A "Low Coolant" warning light comes on
• There are odd noises coming from the engine
• You notice pools of red, yellow, or green liquid under your motorcycle
• Your engine overheats
• You smell the syrupy sweet odor of coolant in the air
