As im about to get a 1125, i was wondering how good is the liquid cooling system on it, on my previous xb9 the air cooling thing obv it wasnt really good, especially when i rode it on traffic on firs second and third gear, in hot weather, and the fan would always go on and blow the hot air right in my groins damn, thats the only thing i hated about that bike, so from people who ride their 1125 in a hot weather and on a trafic that they lawyas have to split the lane go between cars, how good is the liquid cooling on the 1125 is it lot better than the xb's..
 
Well the liquid cooling is for the inside of the engine not the outside, and like most engines it will run around the 200 deg mark.
So the short answer is, its still gonna burn the inside of your right leg and cook you sausage.
having the gripster tank pads helps and ceramic coat the headers helps a lot.
 
I see, :/ but still probably is little better than the xb i believe. And is there any good aftermarket cooling fan that i could install it to the bike
 
Gripster pads help alot to isolate the heat but in my opinion it's hotter riding my 1125 than the xb
 
Thought that cr would be cooler, i dont care anyways gotta powdercoat the exhaust and put some gripsters and hopefully i can find somekind of fan or something that would fit somewhere around the engine, cant stand the heat on the trafic
 
R and Cr are the same other than pulley and swing arm size. I get stuck in traffic and it gets hot, but I haven't gotten burned yet. Ceramic coating should reduce your exhaust temp enough to make it manageable.
