It's time for a coolant change and I saw this on a show. It looks like it has many benefits including a long life. Is anyone familiar with it?

It a couple of threads about the subject at the K-bikes forum.
Look in "other K-bikes" and "technical questions".

To make a claim of 10% improvment of fuel consumption based on the fan not running as much is ridiculous so immediately smacks of snake oil as far as I'm concerned. If you made a claim like that here you'd have the Consumer people run you out of town.

"Up to 10%", so it doesn't mean much. I'd be more interested in "at least xx% with the same driving conditions".

Getting water out of the cooling system is a good thing.
