Default Hot (?) 800

My wife's 800 seems to run hotter than necessary. It is essentially stock with the reed valves blocked and the idle screw out 3 turns. It runs great, somewhat cold blooded but no problems on the road. Issue... every time she stops at a light, fan comes on, shuts down,fan runs 1-2 min., rides in slow traffic, fan comes on. It isn't very hot in Phoenix yet but it going to be soon. The fan on my 1600 runs occasionally, but hers seems to run all the time. Any ideas?
