That's where my problem started, and I thought nothing of it for a while. I grounded out the lead coming off of the fan motor switch on the radiator, and the fan ran, so it was a bad sensor, or so I thought. Took off the radiator and found it was cracked.....Long story short, I pulled the engine out and found the water pump was shot. So I was able to rebuild the entire cooling system on my bike this winter.
