Got a brand new 2024 svartpilen 401. 2nd season with it and noticed coolant (greenish color) on the low side and ordered from amazon m3.0( pinkish color)..is it ok to use? Or flush it first? Or what kind of coolant is green that i can use? Thanks!

If it were me I would not mix them just because of what the mix might look like (pink plus green). Depending on how low it is you could just add distilled water. Seems like a waste to flush it so early in its life.

You could also take it back to the dealer and ask them why it is low, they will probably just top it up under warranty and say nothing is wrong.
 
I did exactly what you are wanting to do. I topped off with coolant from Amazon about 700 miles ago and I’ve had no issues. The colour is different but the spec is the same.

EDIT:
The green factory filled coolant is most likely BAJAJ KOOLEX, Silicate and Borate free. Makes sense, as a KTM and Husqvarna factory. I found this info written by someone dighing into it.

Motorex m5.0 is also green, but different. It should not be mixed with Motorex m3.0.

The filling of the radiator at the factory has not let out air, which in turn seems like it's loosing coolant while it's not, just releasing the air and making the level in the reservoir sink. This way of filling coolant would be looked upon as wrong procedure elsewhere. Bad routines, in my opinion.
