How hot does your bike run?????

3 posts in this topic

My blue bikes temp gauge wastes no time in heading north after

a few minutes of traffic..Just below the red zone .No worries the fan kicks

in and the temp comes down a few notches.Then as soon as I can get going

it drops back to just below half way.Doesnt seem to bother the bike any..The gears

still select ok,the motor runs sweet.It doesnt spit or drop coolant.A couple

of months ago myself and daughter took part in the local Pet Food Cavalcade where

the bike spent about an hour and a half running just below the red with no apparent

problems...

   i know that these bikes can run hot,but does everyone elses bike do this??

I might check the coolent this weekend just in case...

Same here Andy, I try to avoid sitting in traffic, got caught in traffic in London once and the temperature gauge was always in the red despite keep turning the engine off. Once on the move every thing went back to normal.

if its worth anything, my X runs really hot, the one before did and so does my fireblade, and if you really want to sun tan your legs borrow my sportster and sit in traffic.
