low coolant?

[Unluckydiablo]

I have a 600+ mile trip upcomming and I was checking the sled over. Stock sliders look fine, everything else looks ok, but when I looked at the coolant guage, I could see nothing. Just one green drop on it from splash I'm guessing. I turned it on and ran it, pulled it out, and took it up and down the driveway a few times. The driveway is pure ice and I was getting no snow on it. About 20 degrees out. I never got a temp light, and havn't durring the last couple of rides. Anyone experenced this or anything like it? I'm assumeing I have to add coolant, but was confused since I never got a temp light or error code.

I found that after riding hard on trails that are really whooped up, I was loosing coolant out the overflow tube because there is no baffle on the cap. I replaced the stock overflow tube with a longer tube, and made a loop above the overflow bottle, so that any coolant that gets sloshed up into the tube will run back into the bottle

Yep, theese things drop coolant down on your left A-arms... And oil in the belly. Hope they come up with a fix for the oil running down from the airbox, not that it matters but it looks like crap in there.....
