[QUOTE="JasonJ, post: 669119, member: 23758"] I would leave it in. The normal running temp the thermostat is set at is much higher that the air temp. Its important the bike get to normal operating temp to run right and not wear the bore and rings. I would invest in water wetter or some other heat transfer additive. The KLR should have an electric fan on it, is it working ok? You could also try to get a second fan for it and mount it on the other radiator as well. Check your anti freeze mix. If your thick on anti freeze it runs hot and lots of shops will just dump straight anti freeze in when building or working on them. If it never gets near freezing temp there, you might consider just running straight distilled water with some corrosian and heat tranfer additives. Other than that, a bike is a hot place to be sitting in stand still or stop and go traffic. If the bike is not over heating, its fine, your the one who is hot :) . [/QUOTE]
