Daiv Posted March 26, 2008 Share Posted March 26, 2008 I am a bit confused by the R6 running temperatures. It tends to settle around 70c on a run during a cold morning. If I let my beauty reach 80 or 90c idling in traffic, it tends to stay there on a run. The fan comes alive at 100c, commonly at lights or during traffic. How does this beast operate?

Mines the same to, it will run at about 80 during a summer afternoon, it doesn't seem to affect performance though Stacy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Daiv Posted March 31, 2008 Author Share Posted March 31, 2008 I too haven't noticed any difference in performance as it gets hotter. I have had my R6 since November, so have only used it in cooler temps. I expect summer days will see the fan cutting in often, when stationary in traffic for any length of time.
