2007 Ducadi 1098 Overheating
my buddy owns a 2007 Ducati 1098 with 2500 miles on it. slip-on pipe and a re-map are his only mods.
yesterday he was out riding and got caught in some traffic and his temps went to 217 degrees and his bike just shut off. after about 20 minutes of cooling off it restarted. it wasnt that hot out at all. he lives in south Jersey. it was prob 75-78 degrees out.
I know Ducatis notoriously run hot but shutting off at 217 degrees should not be happening.
anyone else have this issue with a 1098? what should he be looking at to address the overheating issue. bad thermostat? faulty radiator? issue with the tune? anyone? thanx
