    Default Kawasaki Brute Force 750 Overheating

    I bought a 2018 Brute Force last year and haven't used it much. Got on it today to feed some stands and it started overheating about 2 miles from where I was parked. I ordered a T-stat and sensor, never checked the radiator to see if it was plugged up with crap, I'm sure it probably is so I'll clean that. When I finally limped it back the coolant was boiling into the reservoir. I could hear it leaking but couldn't see where it was coming from and it wasn't a huge amount. I've read where '13 and '14 models had T-stat issues and that head gaskets could be the issue, that'll be beyond my repair level simply on time. The fan runs, so that isn't it. What else should I look for or could be the issue?
    Yeah, but do you consider a dog to be a filthy animal? I wouldn't go so far as to call a dog filthy but they're definitely dirty. But, a dog's got personality. Personality goes a long way.

    Yeah, fan’s working. Hoping it’s simple, never has been an issue before. Seems like a head gasket wouldn’t be all of a sudden.
