Not so much make.

Focus on contents.

You want a Silica (sand) FREE coolant.. lots of car type antifreezes have tiny particles of silica in them to keep the system clean inside.. this works like a mild abrasive.. this will buggar your water pump up on the VFR.

Your LBS should have some. I brought Rock-Oil last time.. my local shop splits it and sells it by the litre.. was about £7.50 for two litres.. more than enough for the as you want to dilute it with DISTILLED water at 50/50.

I like Engine Ice. Also, Royal Purple sells some stuff that is awesome.

Ah I guess that the pre-mixed stuff?

The concentrate should be diluted 50/50 :)
