I went for a ride the other day, in the afternoon. It was a hot day, (90's.) The bike started running really hot. It maxed out on the gauge. It was burning my legs. I checked and the coolant was full. Ever since I had switched to "Engine Ice" brand coolant it has been running a little cooler, (according to the bar gauge.) But this was painful! I turned around to head for home and 10 miles later the gauge dropped back to the 3rd bar, (normal.)
I was wearing Khaki pants and hiking style boots. I ended up with burns (like sunburn) across my shins above the boot/sock top.
I had already ordered heat wrap yesterday because it had been getting uncomfortable. But this made the bike unrideable!!
Anyone else had problems with overheating?
