Since the race org I race with (CCS) allows us to use Non-Aqueous Propylene Glycol (NPG) that's what I use. I just drained the system completely and replaced it with NPG and ta-da, I never have to do a thing with it again! Plus on top of all that the brand I use doesn't begin to boil till 370* and doesn't freeze till way below anti-freeze, can you say no fan and never boiling over!

Damn...personally glad we won't be "winterizing" down here for another...4-5 months if at all.
As far as doing it...yeah what the other guys said.

My 1st race bike got retired from racing the year I forgot to drain the water out of it and didn't realize it till we already had some 28* nights, sure enough it popped the freeze plugs in the head, but luckily it was salvagable! This was also the same time I switched to using Evans NPG in my bikes.
