2012 apex antifreeze?

[chadman]

The antifreeze is blue in my 2012 apex, do I have to get this blue stuff or can I add to it with the green antifreeze? Is this some special stuff?

I would not mix

Where do I get this blue antifreeze?

BE COOL's antifreeze is blue, so if you're into the hot rod car scene, you'll know who that is.
If not and you need some help, pm me and I can get you some. Its more expensive than dexcool or the green stuff, but you don't dilute it at all, and it does work far better than the orange or green.

I'd be surprised if it was, since that's usually just an aftermarket product. I'm pretty sure the same blue coolant Be Cool uses is the same stuff found in many foreign (non US) vehicles. I can't say I know much about the actual differences, but I have switched to using it exclusively after witnessing a temperature drop in a big block Chevelle we were having cooling troubles with. Noticed a 15* drop in temps right away, in the same conditions.
I do know it's more expensive though, as I usually pay about $125 US for a 5 gal container of it. Worth every penny though after trying it once.

Never heard of it before, and I am curious if the OP has had his sled since new, meaning, is that what Yamaha is now using in their sleds?

Both my 2011 Apex XTX's have blue in them from the factory. I am pretty sure Yamaha has the blue available.
