- This video walks you through how to change the engine coolant and thermostat cover gasket on a 2014 Honda CBR650FA. (EXPAND BELOW FOR DETAILS)
Every subscription and minute you watch my channel helps me build more interesting content, and validates that this is worth doing. Thank you for your ongoing support!
You'll want (at least) 3 quarts of coolant on hand. I used Pro Honda HP Coolant Type-2 (part# 08C50-C321S02) because I always try to use Honda stuff, plus also, this stuff is a wild blue color!
My thermostat cover gasket developed a leak this past winter. I take an extra step in this video to replace it (part# 19305-MGZ-J01). Doing this also drained a lot of additional coolant, so if you don't open yours up (requires an 8mm socket with an extension), you may want to at least disconnect the lower radiator hose.
You should replace your water pump drain bolt crush washer (part# 90463-ML7-000). The water pump drain bolt is opened with a 5mm hex bit. Other than that, the only tool you need for a basic coolant change is a Phillips head screwdriver for the radiator cap set screw.
As you can see, this is a relatively easy maintenance procedure, maybe just one step up from changing the oil.
Other related parts (not replaced here):
radiator bleed bolt o-ring 91353-MEC-003
thermostat 19300-MCJ-003
if you take your exhaust off, you'll need 4 new gaskets: 18291-MN4-92
Thank you for watching. I hope it helps a few of you.

I think it difficult to change thermostat gasket but when i see your video that’s make me confident to change it my self because my prob like you leaking at thermostat when i go for riding thanks a lot bro love from malaysia❤
thanks so much for these videos, they give me the confidence to learn how to maintain my cb650f : )
Thank you for your comment!
Woah it’s been over a year since your last upload! Good to know you’re still riding the 650f! Thanks for the great vids
Haha, it makes me smile that some people care about this stuff! I don't think I'll ever get rid of this bike. I recently moved for a new job that's a big step up: more stress, new house, other projects, baby on the way, excuses, etc. etc. haha. I also picked up a 2008 Harley Road King that I've been riding a lot lately as well; it's fun to have two very different bikes. Thank you for watching and commenting, it seriously means a lot. :-)
Nice video man, think its one of the first showing how to do a coolant change on the CBR650F.
Thank you, I appreciate the comment!
Thanks for the vid. Super helpful
Wow, what a great video, thank you so much! I had coolant leaking from my water pump. Would you have an idea what could have caused the leak? Thank you.
Thanks for video!
Waiting more.)
Thanks! Is there anything in particular you'd like to see more of?
thanks for the video im doing my coolant this weekend. i did notice yesterday my thermo housing is weeping coolant so im going to replace the o-ring also. did this fix the leak ?
great video thank you
You’re welcome! Thank you for watching.
Thank you very much. I am looking for a way to do Because I thought to do it myself
:-) Awesome! Thank you for your comment.
Have you need drain air in systerm coolant?
Hello, I have a Honda CBR650F 2017 I just need to fill up more coolant, do I have to actually do what you did?
Hi can you tell me what is the size of torque wrench you are using, is it 3/8 inch drive?
Bro can u post a video about leds on the F sport
I think you might have solved my problem. I have a 2016 identical to yours and the leak from the thermo cover has been driving me god damn crazy. Ordered a few of those rubber gaskets. Mine doesnt appear to be messed up either but I guess it is... Hope this works!
Awesome, good luck!!
Hey man quick question, does your cbr650f run hot? I recently bought a 2nd hand 650f and I found that after even 15min of riding it the engine gets really hot when I touch it with my bare hands. Not sure if that's most bikes or something with the coolant. Thanks
It definitely gets hot to the touch, and that’s normal for all bikes. If you’re feeling a lot of heat up your legs while in motion, that would be a little more unusual. I always wear long pants while riding and that accidental burns from the engine or exhaust. I think you’re probably fine, but if you want to be extra sure I think I have a video on coolant change.
where can I get a manual for 2014 honda cbr 650f for free
I haven't looked at this because I paid for a physical copy, but I saw this recently on the 650F forums: 650f.bike/threads/2014-service-manual.100/
how many miles you got on her?
About 22k. I’ve slowed down a lot; I do most of my longer rides on a different bike these days so it’s mostly just commuting. Still love it though.

Thank you!
Dang its Honda 2014 has already thermostat leak?I have suzuki sv650 from 2004 and didnt have any those issue.......
I think it’s related to the cold climates I’ve lived in, and fluctuating from hot operating temperatures to far below freezing in the same day (I ride in the winter). Since it’s a super minor issue and is very easy to fix, I don’t think it’s too bad. I’m guessing your 16-year-old SV has had a few consumables replaced over its lifetime too. No bike is perfect, but the 650F, like the SV, is a great value and is extremely reliable.
@@BurntOnBothEnds I got your same bike actually I trade in my sv for a cb650f its night and day the difference I dont know how the people make comparison with inline 4 with v twin honda pull really fast
