Thought it was as simple as a bad radiator cap but its not.. funny thing is it only happens when running 50-60mph for extended periods and as soon as you stop the overheat light will come on.. it will just puke coolant out of the overflow and I will have to refill the radiator like 1/4 gallon after I stop.. Not in the oil and not smoking so who knows.. Read the big long post about overheating issues and it seems like a similar problem to mine except mine doesn't overheat unless you are running fast for extended periods.. If I run with slow bikes or trails you can go more than 30 on then its fine.. seems like the cooling system doesn't have enough capacity to cool this engine properly.. if the dealer doesn't find anything I'm gonna make a sheet metal shroud and maybe some type of air dam to deflect air toward the radiator. Hell I may even look into finding a crossflow radiator cuz I dont think this down flow one allows the coolant a chance to cool.. I just hope they find something while its still under warranty.. So far the dealer, Cyclezone, has been awesome to me so I dont think i'll have any issues with them.. I'll keep you guys posted!
