Even with the ADVMachines dual fan kit and a fresh radiator of engine ice it was back and forth between 4 & 5.
Fine above 30mph though, so i think shes alright

I love how your bike looks Moose

Is one side of the bike green and the other side tan or did it change colors at some point?

You can find them onmy page. Look "bags" and scroll down to the second least "Hamsterbacke".
Each bag fits 2x 1,5l bottles . Its perfect for a camel-bag.
Right now I'm working on a solution for the safaritanks

Great video, but that's simply too much information.

If you're looking to drain your wallet - then Engine Ice works great! Otherwise: not so much. It's fun to debate though...

On the plus side, I can see you've still got plenty of fuel, so you're good to go

Yeah just bustin' chops....
The cool Maine air up here seems to help mine run a little cooler I'm thinkin' .
Seriously, last weekend my wife and I were on some technical logging/fire roads and my bike was running 5 bars from time to time, once we hit 25-30mph everything was A-OK. Her 650gs never seems to get hot.
