Title: Overheating... Post by: ucfneed2ride on November 23, 2004, 06:58:18 PM I have had an overheating problem for a while. The temp. light comes on very quickly. I always have to be "that guy" that needs to stop on a trail ride and let my fan cool the engine down. It is very frustrating when on long trail rides. I have changed the coolant, spark plug, oil, and taken off the radiator guard and cleaned it really good. What else could this be?

You may also have a hose collapsing when it get hot under pressure.
