So I took the Confident Ridercourse / BRC2 today - the RX3 drew some attention and questions of course

But one thing that had me nervous after doing a bunch of stuff at low speeds in 1st and 2nd gear, the engine temp kept creeping up and several times it hit the high mark and blinked at me. I have adequate amount of coolant in the radiators, and the overflow bottle is showing fluid level between the low and high mark.

I could not tell if the fans were on behind the radiators - when the bike was in Neutral, I did check and they were NOT on. Are they supposed to be on and moving??

Riding home normally I had no issues with the temp maxing out, but my bike does occasionally like to creep itself up to 4 bars.
