I have a 2014 Honda foreman and within about 15 minutes of riding it'll start to over heat. I have the radiator relocated . I've replaced the thermostat and cleaned the radiator until it's clean as a whistle. I also checked the water pump on it, it seemed to be fine all the props were still in tack and is wasn't seized up . The fan comes on and will run pretty much the whole time. I did notice the hose coming out the top of the radiator will get hot and the hose on the bottom would be much cooler . I don't know what else to check . Anyone have any ideas . Thanks

i had a ford ranger small truck, that had to be bled in a certain way or it would overheat. one shortcut was to drill a very small hole in the thermostat, to let the air bypass. is it a similar problem? i got no clue
only just enough to let the air bypass, not enough to affect the thermostat.
there are drill sizes that run well below 1/16
