How do I check the coolant level in my Triumph Street Scrambler (2021) motorcycle?

To check the coolant level in your Triumph Street Scrambler (2021) motorcycle, follow these steps: 1. Ensure that the engine is cold, at room or ambient temperature. 2. Position the motorcycle on level ground and make sure it is upright. 3. Locate the expansion tank, which can be viewed from the left-hand side of the motorcycle, towards the rear of the engine. 4.
