Just be sure your jetted right, air filter is clean, you said you had scoops, and might look into a hood mixed opions on the last two but seem to work for me. dont let it sit and idle for a long time, just my 2 cents.....

if its muddy you can put foam rubber in the fins to keep the mud out..

But with the proper jetting you should not have to worry about over heating..


air scoops are good.. bigger oil cooler and reservoir.. all this will help but really is not needed..

not saying your wrong but what kind of foam rubber are you talking bout, half to be something heat resistent.
