Was Vehicle Towed: - Description of the Complaints: Motorcycle has a tendency to overheat when driven slow, ie., in traffic or when going through a construction area. this is very dangerous, as it takes away my concentration to drive, since i have to keep a constant eye on the temp gauge. this happened to me twice so far, once in a traffic jam, and the other in a construction zone. there is also the very real possibilty of loosing coolant in this overheating situation, and getting it on the rear tire, which would result in loosing controi of the bike. if i am forced to pull over due to overheating, i run the risk of me and/or my passenger to be struck by a passing vehicle. thank you for your time in reviewing this potentially dangerous problem.*ak
