Overheating Concerns?

I have an 1996 Honda CBR600F3. After riding for a while and sitting Idled in traffic the temperature gauge rises to slowly to the mid hot point. However after I began riding again and shifting through the gears at high speeds. The temperature gauge begins to slowly lower back down to cool. But while sitting idled the bike seems to start overheating and the fans kicks on every time. Any suggestions as to why it seems to start overheating while sitting Idled.

Sounds pretty normal. When you ride, air passes through the radiator. When you sit idling, the fan comes on and keeps the air moving. Both prevent over heating. Ride more, worry less.

IF you had a Harley, then there would be no fan, and your only option would be to ride.

At a stop there's little air flow to cool the engine, it's like you sitting in front of a fan when you are hot.

That's normal operation.

  • Why is my 1998 Honda civic lx still overheating? I've replaced the thermostat, water pump, timing belt, flushed the radiator and done a coolant test to check for gasses and all is good. The fan is wire up so it automatically comes on when ignition is turned on and is blowing the correct way. Do I need to try a new radiator cap or radiator? Engine light is on but it's for a 02 sensor. Any help is appreciated.
  • My 2001 Honda Civic is overheating and I can't figure out why? I have replaced the radiator cap, coolant reservoir, and thermostat. Also, I check the fans at various times and everytime they are running fine. Lastly, I'm not sure if this information helps, but I live in southern Louisiana where it is almost always hot. I'm a poor 25 year old female college student and I have no idea what else to do.
