:dunno Ok on my trip to myrtle beach this weekend i pulled a little 6x12 enclosed trailer with our bikes in it. On the way down my temp started going up. Water temp got to 219 and oil temp to 227. Is that normal or is there anyway to cool it down. It just doesnt seem right to me. I just flushed the coolant before i left and was running about 70-75 when it got really hot. Shouldnt it be able to handle more of a beating than that. Thanks

im not sure but the thermosat would make the fluid hotter and inturn the block warming the oil also. Just standard stuff is the fluid level up? did you mix the antifreeze 50/50
