TazR6 Posted April 14, 2008 Share Posted April 14, 2008 Mine runs from the mid 70s to the mid 80s depending how hard she is being ridden. In traffic it creeps up (highest I have seen it yet is 96, but I have not had it through a summer yet), but it soon drops again when you get moving. Not sure what temp the fan kicks in at. 101 I think though. I wouldnt worry about your temps. Its fine. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

yoda Posted April 14, 2008 Share Posted April 14, 2008 Just a short note to add to this thread. When doing a service to your bike in spring, short out the temperature sender to the fan and ensure that it starts and runs normally. You dont want to get stuck in traffic with a boiling engine.

YZF Lad Posted April 14, 2008 Share Posted April 14, 2008 My 01 R6 working temp is around 70 - 80, fan kicks in around 101. Soon drops again once I'm moving. Usually in the 70s on the m/way. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
