1. lots of bikes will do this, its already HOT if the fan kicks on thats the whole reason the fan kicks on duh

2. put some coolant in the bottle like there should be and your problem will prob. go away to an extent

3. it is overheating because you dont have ENOUGH coolant in the system. read above,its not the thermostat or cap , if putting coolant in the resy doesnt help then i would go after the cap then the thermostat
