[QUOTE="FJRGTSPilot, post: 1345423, member: 90213"] FYI, parts finally arrived, believe it was the thermostat going out. Just tested, bike warmed to 5 bars, then appears thermostat opened as it went back to 4 bars for quite a bit, then slowly progressed back to 5 bars, at 7 bars for about a minute then fans came on, cooled to 6 bars and fans cut off. Took it much longer to get to this point (nearly 10 mins) than before so think the thermostat was starting to go. I've also replaced the fan and headlight relays since they are the same and lots of mentions about them failing in other posts, so I'll carry the old ones in the bag just in case. I'll take pics of the relays and their locations to post later as I could not find this info searching about. I'll take pics before I put the nose back on the bike, as well as check the ground spiders I found under the nose. Thanks... [/QUOTE]
