I’ve had mine on long runs over 5000 feet a few times per year since buying mine in ‘18, but I really don’t purposely drive through mud that swamps the radiator and I wash my rig religiously before going out on big rides with the family including the radiator. I’ve always had a heater installed in every SXS I’ve owned as I work with them in the winter and it’s a easy way to get more cooling capacity in a emergency if necessary.

with the club store fan mod, and keeping the radiator clean, I’ve never overheated mine, but have been close enough that if I do hit the 3rd bar, a 5 min run on the heater brings it right down without stopping. Yes it’s miserable in the front seat, but we don’t stop either and wait. Usually the only time I’ve had to do that is when it’s also 95 f outside.

on the flip side in the winter, I have to block a good portion of the front radiator cause it takes for ever to warm up heater if you don’t..

I came across this: Custom Radiators | Electric Fan Kits | ATV | Side by Side
Is a complete high perfromance radiator and fan. It's $$$ and Honda should built one instead of the customer needing to upgrade.

No kidding! Somebody said they upgraded the radiator the fan in the Shroud on the 2022 models? If that's the case you know there was a problem

I don't know about this product but you know if you had more cooling area you'd run cooler.

I also heard that. Hey, the 2022 may fit in yours, I don't know. You might what to check it out but it may be more than the aftermarket one which is plug and play.
