My nieghbors quad does the same thing but you can only see it at night. at 1st i thoguht it was the pipe and filter we installed but the main went from 118 to 188 and the clip went from position 3 to 5 and the plug check was good.

I don't think he has to worry about overheating from idleing with a liquid-cooled engine.

Yea, it's normal as everyone else says. My YFZ does it too, as did my 400ex before that. As long as it's not a bright glowing red/orange that could blind you if you looked at it too long, it's not a problem.
