[QUOTE="2strokesteve89, post: 221122, member: 1670"] If your talking about engine coolant boiling over, make sure your coolant level is full, the radiator fins are clear of debris like mud and dirt, and none of the cooling hoses are kinked or restricted. If this all checks out try a different coolant, I've had good results from product called "engine ice" this is helpful when riding in slow trails or rocky terrain that requires a lot of clutch work. Speaking of the clutches, a tremendous amount of heat can result fom excessive slipping of the clutch. Usually you can smell a hot oil odor from the crank case vent as the clutch is closing in on meltdown status, if you notice this, you should shut down the bike for a cool down before damage is done.
