I recently took my bike to the dealership, got a full service, which includes new oil, coolant, brake fluids; the usual. Before I had noticed the bike running extremely hotter than usual, which I thought was due to the lack of coolant. So I took the bike for service thinking that would solve the issue. It hasn’t.
I plugged the bike into Tune ECU, coolant temp rises to 100 C, within 4 minutes. Radiator fan does kick in at 102 C and as long as the bike is idle it stays at that range.
Afterwards, I took the bike out for a ride on a cool night, wishing minutes the heat is excessive. After 30 minutes of riding, I quickly plugged in Tune ECU, and the bike temp coolant is reading at a constant 117C, and even rose to 118C at idle.
This isn’t normal right? Trust me I live in NYC and I ride all the time, and it only gets this hot if I’m in stand still traffic for like an hour. But there’s no traffic, cool night, normal few days, and I’m guessing the bike has been running this hot for quite a while.
I doubled checked the oil and coolant levels, all seem normal.
Can anyone give me any insight on this issue?
Best,
Budda
