Message: [QUOTE="dirt bike dave, post: 1405344, member: 18302"] Yes, it sounds like overheating to me. My guess is the muddy conditions contributed, even though the radiator was not clogged with mud. The motor simply has to work much harder in the mud than it does on hard pack. Imagine how much easier you yourself would overheat if you had to push your bike a mile in deep mud compared to a mile on dry hard ground. Mud and deep soft sand will bring out overheating problems in many bikes. Did the radiator guards contribute to the problem? Maybe. [/QUOTE]
