Default outlander 800 overheating

Do Can-Am 800 outlanders have any overheating issues. My fan cycles quite a bit in 60 degree weather with normal driving. I am concerned what it might do in hot summer weather...

Ya, the outty 800 run warm. If you run in the muck alot, they have a 3 core rad. Even though you wash the front and rear of the rad out, the middle core probably will still be plugged. Take the rad out, soak it in a pan of dish soap and water for 24hrs then rinse it out totally inside and out. You'll be amazed how much comes out of it..... mine dropped almost 5 pounds(yes just the rad). Also find a product called Engine Ice to run instead of antifreeze. Runs bout 20 degrees cooler and much better. Hope that helps......
