I may drink it, but that depends on the brand of antifreeze they used. Prestone is bitter...BMW is sweeter...Shell has a tinny aroma. All depends on your taste buds. However, BMW brand is the only one the "RR" will tolerate.

I have been putting Wal-Mart brand antifreeze in my tires for tha last two winters. It adds enough weight to get throuth the snow and keeps the tires from freezing to the ground. I expect that if I get a leak in one of them the ice will melt and I will have clear sailing going home.

Shell has a tinny aroma

As long as it just a tiny aroma and not a grand odor..............................OOPS! You said TINNY! Not Tiny! Sorry. Actually a little anti-freeze goes well with just about any appetizer like chips and salsa, or sprinkle some on a plate full of red kidney beans for a nice surprise.

Do not forget to flush it down with bid of old Austrian wine

All this talk has me really wanting to ride. But I neglected to winterize the bike last fall, I hope my antifreeze from last yr is still good. Also does anyone here know of safe method to secure my wheelchair to the R?
