I'm putting my top end back together in the next few weeks , and I was assuming I would just use a 50/50 mix of antifreeze/ water , but what does everyone else run? I ride the dunes and obviously it's a work-out on the motor . Does anyone ride dunes here and just runs water only? Or use a water wetter product in the water?

No reason to run CLR... If you want a good flush, drain the system, fill with water, run it for a few minutes, drain again, then take a blow gun and blow threw the radiator cap and push all the water off. All I use my banshees for is dune riding and I will honestly swear by Engine Ice. They claim to run alot cooler and I swear my bikes run cooler. Look into that and buy some, 1 jug fills our radiators. Cheap and a good product IMO.
