Default overheated.

quick background:

had a coolant leak
shop said they fixed it
they didn't
took it apart today and saw it's coming from the back of the radiator (second section down, middle right)
filled 'er back up with coolant
buttoned 'er up
rode home
then i overheated on the way stuck in traffic. the temp gauge hit "HI". so i waved and said, "hello you piece of crap! just get me home."
i can tell my fan wasn't running so i pulled over and let it cool down.


so i have a radiator leak and my fan isn't running. i'm pretty sure i didn't disconnect the fan when i took it apart. only the tank and fairings came off. i did disconnect my battery.

whatcha think?

thanks!

p.s. sorry to bother for help again. :/

Double check the fan connector and also the ground wire. And don't call your bike "A piece of crap" or she'll really let you down; literally.

Take her out for a nice evening in a state park or in the country, buy her some nice gas... a little rub down when you get home... You may just have a happy bike again. [sm=loveeyes.gif]
