Was out riding today probably put about 70 miles on it. After about 55 miles we took a break so the machine probably sat at least 20 min. About 5 miles down the trail temp light comes on, wasn't running it that hard. Pulled over let it cool took some water bottles and tried to clean the radiator some, wasn't even that bad. We rode about 6 or 7 more miles to a place where we planned to stop and machine again sat about 15 but light didn't come on this time. Get going again about 6 or 7 miles light comes back on again! Stop let it cool again made about 4 more miles to a place where I could park and left the machine there and went and got the truck and trailer I'm sick of it!
Last time I was out it did the same thing and the radiator had a good bit mud in it, so I made those mud deflectors and now that's not the problem. I thought the deflectors could be cutting air back but kinda ruled that out because I put a bunch of miles on it earlier in the day with no problems.
At this point I think it's going back to the dealership for him to figure I'm getting sick of it. I love the machine and it rides great but I like to go more than about 7 miles in one stretch.
