Do you remember what happened to the bike just before last Sunday?
Refill, fall over, maintenance, rained over, over-heat, etc.?

Fall over and over heat are two definite possibilities. I don't have confidence in my thermo switch but I do run a second switch straight to the radiator fan....

It seems to me that tearing this engine apart for visual inspection will not tell you much.

At least I can eliminate any engine issues (in theory) when I put my spare engine in. If it starts then that should tell me something. If not then there is still much left to question.
