  • heres what happend with mine bf750, i took it out in some deep water,, later i knowtised that a week later i was over heating when driving slow but not when i was driving fast, then i came to realise that for some reason my fan was not working, i cheched the braker switch for the fan and it was ok, so i took it to a dealer, and aperently some water got into a electrical conector with 6 wires and messed it up,, now everything is ok, but ur fan seems to work, change coolent and thermalstat.

  • The six wire thing is a common problem, but an easy fix. If you are going to use it like that I suggest pulling apart every connector you can find and coating the terminals with dielectric grease. I kept the coolant, changed the thermostat for one that fits a 1980's V65 Magna. A test of the t-stat revealed that it was opening at 10% hotter (in Celsuis) than it should. Added a temp gauge, too. Runs at 200 degrees on the hottest days, now. Just right.

  • what tires are you running?

  • That stock rad is terrible, go with a triple flow rad its amazing with the new fan

  • one way of knowing if its a blown head gasket is to let it run till you think its hot then check the water reserve canister if its bubbling up inside then yeah its a gasket

  • brutes usually run around 210 220 i got a temp gauge on mine its stays around there so your good

  • the motors are shit fans blow to much got to hot wire the fan and rebuild the motor until i totled it

  • i think i was bein perinoid I took it on a 2 day ridin trip and had it loaded up with gear also I was tryin to keep up with all those 2 wheel drive fast quads and had no probs. the fan would kick on and off while ridin I was very inpressed

  • it will shorten engine life

  • what kind of tires are those???
