I recently met a friend that has a brand new f650. Shes put about 150 miles on it(new rider) when it started overheating. I heard this all secondhand so i may be vague. She looked at the sightglass and the bike appeared to have no coolant. she drained the resivor and what slightly resembled coolant colored toothpaste came out. the bike is off to the dealership for repair but does anyone have any idea what that stuff could be? ill take a pic of it next time i see her. short of not knowing what the stuff is are there any long term implications of this thick crap sloshing around in the coolant resivor, i dont think the bike every actually overheated. Lastly the dealership told her she would have to wait two weeks for a service appointment, this sounds like a setup/prep problem to me, any thoughts?
