few ideas

+This stuff is well spoken of
+ wrong coolant mixture can cause overheating too
+Jetting is often an issue- these bikes run very lean
+You haven't fillled the overflow bottle have you?
+malfunctioning thermostat
+air lock? if you have replaced coolant, have you bled the system free of air?
