The fan doesn't shut off after the engine is stopped so I'm wondering if that's actually a short somewhere and the other thing is would that actually make my check engine light come on?
Yes it would make the check engine light come on because the fan is controlled by the computer and if it's not shutting off then there's a a sensor that is not telling the computer shut off the fan temperature cooling sensor
Testimonial: "Ok thank you very much I will definitely look into it ... I’m just learning this bike never owned this particular type so I’m a little unfamiliar with where everything is located so this may sound like a strange question but where would the sensor be located?"
Sorry I’m on my phone lol I posted in the wrong place but again yes I will definitely look into it and when you can get the rest of it from the testimonial part anyway One other question would it be safe to ride the bike from my home to my mechanic which is approximately like 9 miles away from my home without causing any other issues? As I’m unsure Where the sensors would actually be located on this particular motorcycle.
The fan is to prevent the engine overheating. Should be a problem for a short ride. The sensor will likley be on the engine block somewhere.
Ok thank you

There is likely to be an electric thermostat / sensor which switches a relay to start the fan if the engine temp reaches a set point. Its possible the either the relay or the sensor has failed causing the fan to stay on.
My Honda VTX is a radiator cooled motorcycle I had the same problem there's a temp switch the kicks the fan on and off my switch was bad .
It was a temp sensor which controls the fan
SOURCE: 2004 ford ranger. temperature gauge
is the coolant flowing thru the radiator check bottom hose should be same temp as top hose if not could be clouged radiator or week water pump
SOURCE: My 2003 Kia Spectra has Diagnostic codes: P1404 & P0444.?.?
the purge valve i believe is located near your gas tank unless theyve moved it i should look like a little canister cyclinder shaped. both codes could be set off by the same problem. try replacing the valve.

Looked it up in Chilton's, confirmed in http://www.obd-codes.com/trouble_codes/
P0481 Cooling Fan 2 Control Circuit Malfunction
Each fan will throw a different code. See 3 fans listed for your model. Here's a link for the wiring schematic: http://www.chiltonlibrary.com/content/images/WD/GM/014/WD_GM_014788.pdf
Best of luck.

You either have a cracked hose or an air leak to or on the fuel tank.
