Yeah I'm pretty sure the thermostat is working as it should is the thing. Removing it would just make the bike take forever to warm up and never get up to a nice operating temp.

I'm going to have to replace my thermostatic switch but that can't be causing the overheating because I have a fan switch jumped and the engine still overheats while the fan is running. I'm worried that my water pump has seized but I don't know how to test it yet...

My coolant is only about a year old so I'm really not suspecting this to be the problem but I will check it tomorrow.
