Tenere Coolant

Hi again guys, apologies for yet another batch of ignorant noob questions but it is my first ever bike and im really not wanting to damage it, esp after only 6 months lol(I really need to look for a bike maintaince course somewhere ):

1. On checking my coolant reservoir it looked pretty low(ie, the bike upright i cant seem to see any of the blue liquid between the lines, but there is some there). Is that normal after 1000 miles? If it is, what type of coolant is preferred amongst you guys? Can i use any type, even car stuff from a local garage or does it have to be bike specific from a bike dealership etc? What should I be looking for.(i live in a cold place which is liable to freezing, esp waking up this morning)

2.The larger breather tube underneath is starting to fill with what looks like oil. Again is this normal? I presume i can simply remove the end cap and let it drain to clear it out?

3.Is there anything that you`d recommend i`d look for/do, now that I`m at 1000 miles?

Again, thanks for any replies. I`m slowly starting to get used to owning a bike, even though it is a bit daunting, especially as I`m not really in contact with any other bikers or Ten owners out there.

cheers
