Hi…. I’m interested to find out if anyone is getting over heating and boil-over problems with their motocross bike? I would like to know the running conditions that make it overheat; such as the heat of the day or at constant full throttle or running in deep sand / mud. And also if you have experienced engine damage from over heating problems.
I would be very grateful for anyone that would be kind enough to provide me with this information.
Best Regards
Peter

I'm with him.
BTW, you can't ride hard enough for it to make a difference, the stock bikes are that good.

I once left my YZ250F idling against the start box while helping someone else get their piece of shit 4 stroke started. Turned around and it was puking all over the place.

I won't ride a 4 stroke for too many reasons, but overheating is why I will not go woods riding with anyone ON a 4 stroke either. Last time we went to gnarly place the two guys on 4 strokes we did not complete the loop and they caused us to give up ALL our drinking water for their radiators. It was a long trip home and they were never invited again. My bike does not overheat and for your next few posts...my pipe does not get red hot, no valves to adjust, don't get tired trying to start it, can afford TWO bikes, can talk to my buddies in the woods WHILE my bike is running...

There is nothing in Indiana besides CORN and the dealer show.
