Ideally NONE should ever be used in a perfect world so as long as your motor is tip top and you don't let the bike overheat, you'd never need one. |

http://www.rickramsey.net/CRF250Xbigbore.htm#coolingfan Actually running the fan depends on if you are running the stock electrical system which, as I understand it on the 450r, is basically nothing. Are the lights running off the stator (probably upgraded if so) or are they running off a total loss system (do you have to charge the battery)? |

If it's midsummer and we go ride MX... If I start the bike to warm it up and go get my gear on. I've found the radiator spewing a few times once I came back ready to ride. |

I put the new water wetter in it today, supposed to run cooler than engine ice. Also made an overflow bottle with a "nos" energy drink bottle. Should be a start.

Hit 74 today.. bike is sick, even with leaves on the ground, I was able to go pretty damn fast. It's also been a while since I rode something quick up there. The catch can worked very well.. it got a few ounces of coolant in it during my ride back home and by the time I parked the bike the radiator had sucked it back up.
