i am still having some issues with this

Went ridding yesterday and the bike got pretty hot after I was ridding it pretty hard for a few laps around this sand track.

I have a temp sensor and it was showing 197.

the bike then went into safe mode and stayed like that for about 1/2 hour.

I still cant find any info about these bikes even having a safe mode function???

Maybe i should replace the over heat sensor

Hmm, I would pull the radiator and make sure all the fins, especially the ones near the fan are clear. Also check that your water pump is in good condition. I had the fins on the impeller disintegrate on a car once, and it would overheat pretty quick.
