Talking Fan-Temperature Question

First of all, I would like to say I'm new to the motorcycle world
I purchased a CBR 2002 F4i, but I have a question, I have read some questions similars to this, but my fan kicks in at 180F and it doesn't turn off until I completly turn the bike off, that means literally puttin the key in Off.
Also while on the temperature keeps rising to 210F I only practiced like 2 hours today but that's my question.
Greetings from Mexico!

Fan shouldn't turn on until 220 [+/- 5 degrees].
It should turn off by 210.
Your not overheating until 250, although I've never even seen 240 and would turn the bike off at that point to figure out why it got there.

Check your cooling system, make sure its filled. Then check the radiator fan sensor/switch sounds like its bad.

Thanks, I will check that, do you think it's necessary going to mechanic or I can do it myself?

Since your asking I'd imagine you should have a mechanic check it out.

If you have any mechanical ability at all, you should be able to do this without too much trouble - https://cbrforum.com/forum/how-mecha...-105389/page2/

Of course, I say that to myself all the time and end up wondering "WTF was I thinking???"

Both boredandstroked and Doc S are correct if that makes any sense.
If you need to ask, it does show inexperience but wisdom at the same time for asking.
Your issue isn't a super tough one. But you will need a little bit of knowledge and some tools.
The best tool you can have is the factory service manual for your bike. It will get you most of the way there. Asking questions here like you have will take you the rest of the way.
