Hi Guys,

 

I have just got a new Repsol 4RT & rode my first trial for 9 years at the weekend i noticed the fan comes on quite a lot i wondered if this is normal? I'm considering replacing the coolant with engine ice as i use to use this in my CRF250X as that liked to run hot made a bit of difference to how often the fan came on & the running temp

 

Cheers

Yes, is normal.

Yes, is normal.

 

Thanks have you tried any different coolant?

Yes, on my previous 4RT, Denicol Zero which claims to lower the engine temp by about 10°C but I never really noticed a major difference.

 

That said, I never timed the fan or measured the fluid temp to measure the advantage it had over the "normal" coolant.

 

 

For my new 4RT I'll be using Castrol Radicool SF.

Ok thanks for the in for i may try some engine ice once i have had a few more rides on it

With trials fans go on, because of the lack of air cooling (yeah, a liquid cooled system is also air cooled eventually). So no problem as long as it doesnt trow out its coolant.

its completely normal. mine comes on every minute or so

cool thanks for the replies guys
