If there is no temperature gauge on a motorcycle, the way to tell if the motorcycle is overheating is by smell or feel. If the bike smells like radiator hot water, it might be overheating. If the legs of the operator start to become so warm that it is uncomfortable to ride, it might be overheating.
Start with the cheapest fix first. Replace the radiator cap. If still overheating replace thermostat. Make sure you have a 50/50 mix of antifreeze and water. Lastly if all else fails, check for a plugged or faulty water pump and or radiator.

If your Peugeot 106 is overheating quickly and won't start, first check the coolant level and look for any leaks in the cooling system, such as hoses or the radiator. Ensure the radiator fan is functioning properly; a faulty fan can lead to overheating. If the coolant is low or the fan isn’t working, address those issues before attempting to start the engine again. It’s also advisable to have a mechanic inspect the vehicle for potential issues like a blown head gasket, which could lead to further damage if not addressed.
A radiator fan is designed to operate only when the coolant is very hot, and the motor is in danger of overheating. You do not have a problem unless the motor overheats after sitting still idling for prolonged periods of time.
