Subject: Anti freezing liquid ???
If I understand correct, you do not mean the anti freezing liquid used in the water.
You mean the liquid to put in the gas tang, so the carburators do not freeze. "Kondensfjerner" in Norwegian.
No, I have never had to use anti freeze liquid in the tank og my 93 RD07.
I use the bike all year. In winter we often have -25, but that is no problem for the @. (I cover the radiators to get the engine warm, and I cover the whole front also, from the engine guard an up. This also prevents a lot of salt and dirt in the engine)
The problem with ice in the carburators is normally biggest in temperatures just below zero and high humidity in the air. This is a well known problem in Norway, and meny peoples use "kondensfjerner" all winter in ther cars or bikes. But even in the worst conditions I have not had any problems at all with my @.
