Ah I see, good to know. Did you buy a new radiator or did you get yours fixed?

Hey guys the temp seems to be fine now it's always sitting at 1/2 when riding, I was wondering is it normal that it sits at 2/3 when I finish riding and then cools down in like 10 minutes? I added a picture, it's the highest it gets really http://i.imgur.com/VWyDcBj.jpg
I will still be replacing the fan switch because I'm not sold that the fan works correctly (the fan motor itself is fine)

Before you run out and get a new switch do the test for it as stated in the manual ie- measure its resistance cold, then measure it when it's warm.

That's the starter solenoid clicking away. Check battery power

I will do that tomorrow, but the weirdest bit is the bike wasn't sitting around for the night or anything I was doing like 40mph came to a full stop and bam, the power cut off and bike is having this issue. strange
