When coming to a stop sign I was in second so I pulled in the clutch and shifted to first and kept it in while coasting to the sign. Bike died on the way to the sign probably about a second after shifting to first
If coolant is not circulating, then yes, it could be overheating. How do you know it's not circulating? It circulates only when the thermostat is open. Did you watch it though a cycle of the thermostat opening and closing again? What does the temperature gauge read while you're riding?

I figured it wasn’t circulating cause the reservior was full, not realizing that was a stupid thing to think cause it circulates. The temp gauge is pretty low when riding, doesn’t move much honestly.
