Running Hot

[kcmess]

I am looking for some info on the issues of my 09 rs spyder running hot. I bought my 09 rs new and have had the same tire wear, dps and vibration problems as others have had that reported on these pages. Jimmie and now Dan at Cowtown have been my saving grace. They have always taken care of me and made me feel better about my purchase. As time and miles rack up so do more issues like transmission codes which Dan took Care of like always. Just cant say enough about these guys, I just got it back from Cowtown on the 6/24 and rode it on a short trip to check it out and now it is running hot. I really hate to keep calling Cowtown on every little thing and we are leaving on vacation on 6/30 I hope on the Spyder. Before when we rode it, it always ran cool like three or four bars down the highway with my wife and I and a full load in our corbin bag with air temp in the 90s. If it got to five bars in traffic the fan would come on and drop it back to four bars. Now when we went for a ride the bike went to Five bars in the first four minutes of the ride, the fan came on going down the highway at 60mph. The bike has never run this hot, we did not ride every long, because the bike got to running sluggist. I checked the antifreeze it is wright to the line. The radiator is clear and clean, any ideas on what I should look at? :helpsmilie:

Did Dan have them do a pressure test on the coolant reservoir? It could be cracked and it must be able to hold pressure.
