Here's my experience after changing the head gasket & water pump 4K miles ago. My bike always ran 2 bars away from the hot mark before, during, and after the head gasket/water pump replacement. I installed a SPAL fan, high pressure radiator cap, and Engine Ice as preventative maintenance 2K miles ago and now it sometimes runs 1 bar cooler or 1 bar higher (doesn't matter how hot it is outside). The overflow reservoir also pukes coolant and goes from the low mark to the high mark often. I don't think the SPAL fan cools the bike more efficiently than the OEM fan but I don't have CFM #s to prove it and I'm thinking about trying out Evans coolant because it doesn't expand and contract like water/glycol products...
