Here's the story,
A friend with a 2008 FZ6 S2 Naked White (4 months older than mine, bought new from the same dealer and now we have about the same km's, around 2500km)and i went for a ride
The route included a 20 minutes highway on an average speed around 130-140 km/hour and a 10 minutes of heavy traffic.
My bike temperatures on the highway was fine, around 83 °C (181.4 °F)
During the traffic, i was going on first and second gear and the temperature got up to 124 °C (255.2 °F). My friends FZ6 temperature was 99 °C (210.2°F)The red warning light turned on and the temperature on the display was flashing .
I stooped the engine and water from the radiator overflow pipe started to flow ( the green water )
When i turn the key to on, i noticed that the radiator fan was not working.
On my way back everything went ok, with temperatures of 83 °C at 130-140km/h
I am calling the Yamaha dealer tomorrow morning to arrange a check up for my sick beauty.
I think it might be a fuse but i'm not risking it.It's in the warranty so i'm expecting free charge
Should i be wary for anything worse???
