I've got a full radiator block, and just drove 5 miles, and the return coolant line was hot to the touch, although my temperature gauge was only registering 75% of normal summer operating temperature, it was about 50-55F at the time, and I was riding right around 4K in 4th, and the main comes on fairly noticeably just past 6K. Throttle opening was very light for the last 10 seconds before I killed the engine.

And I have not read the K&N thread yet.
