Default Overheating Honda

Hello all. First thread, and of course its for a problem. I have a 1991 Honda CBR1000, liquid cooled. I was sitting in traffic after the Blessing of the Bikes and I looked down and the temp gauge was pegged to the HOT side, and cooland dripping from the tube under the seat. I never had to look at the gauge before, the fan always came on. This time, it didn't. If I was moving, it was fine, but idle, no fan. The radiator is full, overflow is empty, the fuse for the fan is good. How can I test the fan operation, or is there something that usually goes wrong that becomes an easy fix, like a bad switch, or a loose wire? Help? Do i need to make a toggle switch for a manual fan op?

I am not familiar with this bike but I'm sure that if you take the fan motor in to a shop they will check to see if it is still good. Also, get an owners manual.

45C is nothing. Processors are usually fine until 60/70. Graphic cards can survive 100. Overheating cannot cause that to the music.This thread should be moved to the privacy and network encryption forum. _______________________________________Website I designed for cash in advance Ottawa company.

Excellent learn, I simply passed this onto a colleague who was doing a little analysis on that.
