Question Can somone answer me?

Hello,
Is it normal for the bike to overheat when tempretures reach 100-133F?
I have a 1999 CBR F4 btw.

I live in the middle east and it can reach 133 degrees in the summer. The weather sucks XD. I guess i will have to wait till summer ends.

only 133 it was over 145 here in iraq a little bit ago. either way she should be good, Id make sure I had fresh coolant in her.
I have a question for you though. How do you ride in this heat? I couldnt imagine it, I'm from Florida and it CAN get up to 110 maybe 115, with high humidity but riding with such a dry heat seems like a killer. Drinking plenty of water i guess.

Our summer temps here hit 47-50C which is around 110-130F. My bike doesn't overheat unless I sit at traffic lights, then the fan kicks in. I think you may have a coolant problem or something relating to circulation......
Wet your shirt, and pull your jacket over it. Good for around 60-70 miles, then do it again. It works !

my old F4 would start to heat up at stop lights, but it would cool back down when I started moving again. Most bikes will do this as the engine is cooled by the air, but if your riding around in 130* weather then I would almost expect the bike to run hot, thats freakin hot dude!
