    Overheat Problem

    Hi guys, I do not know what the problem is anymore since i have replaced a lot of parts to try to get rid of the overheating but i will just tell you guys what is going on.

    So when I ride, my thermostat gauge starts up normally and then sometimes it goes past the middle and really close to red. I cleaned my MAF, replaced the intake boot, did a coolant flush and changed my oil. Still sometimes the thermostat goes pass the middle and close to the red. Do i need to replace a gasket somewhere? maybe my radiator fan is faulty? i have no idea at this point.

    Sorry for the complicated explanation,

    thanks!

    Most likely, your SI batteries/board is dead. Get yourself an IR thermometer and get the real engine temp. If your temp is fine at warm up then you need to bleed the coolant system again.
