[QUOTE="wfooshee, post: 744761, member: 6354"] Did steam come out of it anywhere? Did it rattle and stop running? Did water start bubbling out of the overflow tank? Did the gauge even approach the top of the indicator? Then it didn't overheat. If the fan didn't even kick on, how can you be worried about overheating? I see four bars on mine regularly, and I saw 5 once. Briefly. Once traffic cleared and I got moving, it dropped rapidly back to 3, and eventually 2. Turns out my coolant level was a bit low, I'd probably never have seen 5 bars with a full level. I've don't recall anyone ever posting that they actually overheated their FJR. If you pop a hose and start spraying water, park and get it fixed. Otherwise, it just doesn't get too hot. Fan kicks in, radiator works, and incredible bit of engineering, all that! :rockwoot: [/QUOTE]
