Default 01 katana with visible steam
the other day, i was driving around when I was forced into traffic due to a closed road or something. It was about 90 degrees and after about 15 minutes just sitting in traffic I noticed steam coming up from the pipes and then the bike started idling at 3,000 RPMs so I hopped in the breakdown and drove it home immediately. What would cause this to happen, I think its either a fan or a broken temp gauge. Any ideas or first hand experiences with a problem like this?
