I recomend that everyone checks their fan, look close at it and spin it by hand and make sure that it doesnt make contact with the radiator any where. i didnt do anything to my fan and some how it started rubbing and i just happened to see it.

I had the same problem. I just replaced my radiator and shimmed the fan out a little bit.

i've never had a problem with this. i can almost get my finger between the fan ring and the radiator. after 4 xc races on the quad the fan has only kicked on one time during any of them.
