Default BF Overheating??????

Hi, my brother just purchased a new 06 BF and we have only been riding three times since he got it...All three times it has overheated..Took it back to dealer they said nothing was wrong with bike. Has anyone else had this problem or do these bikes just not like the mud???? we do extreme mud riding and the rest of the family rides Honda's without any problems.

Thanks we were trying to find a more permanent fix, rather than having to leave the trails every 10 minutes to hose it off...

Make sure your elec fan is kicking in when hot. If not, it would surely overheat.

buy a live well pump at walmart (15 dollars) add a plug in on it to plug in your brute and then add some garden hose and a spray nozzle and you have a radiator wash that is cheap easy to carry in your bag and works great! stop at the next water hole and wash it out. anotherthing I did was took eagle 1 chrome "ETCHING" wheel cleaner and sprayed the radiator and rinsed it out, seems to cool better now
