Default 2012 Foreman fan…

Has anyone noticed that the '12 Foreman fan kicks on alot more then some of the earlier models?? This past hunting season my cuzin, uncle, dad and I where out scouting and my fan seemed to be on and off alot more often then theres. We all have Foremans. My Cuzin has a '00 uncle has a '09 same as my dads. The bike didn't feel hot nor was I heavy on the gas we where basically just checking some of our more common hunting spots.

as long as the fan is kicking on, don't worry. even though it's liquid cooled, it still needs air circulation to remove some heat.

Yea just want to make sure it's normal and I don't have something that may get worse down the road. I was considering installing a temp gurage just to have a visual on the actual temp it's running at.

It hasn't given me a problem so I have no reason to call the dealer. I was just asking being that none of the guys I ride with have the '12 model and I had no one elts to comPare it to. Luckily now in days we have forums that we can ask thies types of question and don't need to take the bike to the dealer more then we need to.
But thanx for the advise.
