    The temp. ran right where it was supposed to all day. The hot light never once came on, and the fan kept the motor running cool the way it was supposed to. This DS still has the "Limp Mode" in it, when the quad gets to hot it will shut down. I never excperienced any of that and this was the second race in the mud on it so far. I have also put about 6 additional hard riding hours on it, still no problems. The Ds did start to sputter on me on the last lap and I looked down to see the fuel light was on. We had raced for 1 hour and 50 mins, and i hadnt stopped to get gas. This thing is light, fast, and handles very well, so for all those bashers of the Can-Am, you better see what this thing is actually gonna do before you start assuming things.
