Re: Bike engine temperature...


04 cbr 1k

174 when moving and 233 when sitting at a light. After 14000 miles or so I discovered that if you hold the throttle just ever so slightly off idle the fan so graciously kicks on and she'd hover around 217-219 till I started to move again, in cooler weather it would come down to 209 - 211.

Not sure if other mfg's have the same function feature but it's worth the testing to keep your eng slightly below grenade temps
