Take it back and make them fix it. ;)

Either you've go carb issues, timing issues, spark issues, or compression issues.

Odds are is youre float level is off and you are getting waay too much fuel at low rpms. But since you jsut bought it off of someone, who know what's wrong with it.

Didn't you test ride it first?

I actually had the same problem that you did...I bought an o5 left over and when i wanted to go slow on the trails with lots of riders it was really hard to ride slow and feather the clutch.....it just bogged out and stalled...it took some time to get use to. After about 4 or 5 tanks of gas and then the first recomemded oil change time i wasn't so bad....i think it just needed to be broke in a little and as for the fan i haven't even really seen mine on much to be honest it really takes a lot to get it on. But if you do happen to find out something is wrong let me know.

If I let the bike idle for like 10 minutes the fan will come on. It takes a while to come on and when it does you can't hear it.

If you want, put a line on the fan, I used some white out, that way it is easier to see if it's spinning.

Left over 05's have had today's high quality gas setting in them for months! Carbs are gummed up and tanks are full of gas not fit for a lawnmower! drain all fuel before starting and donate it back to the dealership's owner (volunteer to put it in his personal car!!!)
