  1. As title,
    Just to check, the headlight right side comes on automatically when you start the bike day or night,

    When starting the bike and ticking over the temp comes up to 40 so ready to pull away and steadily increases as you ride as normal when i hit busy traffic the temp went up to 101 and had me a bit worried, i have been reading the owners manual and mention's it can go up to 124 if so stop, i suppose i am just after a bit of reassurance its ok,
    not had a bike with a digital dash before so not used to seeing the temp numbers increasing.
    I have done a search on the above but no luck.
    Thanks
     
  2. Yep.

  3. Fan should kick in at 103...
     
  4. Test the fan on your drive.
    Just start the bike and let it idle till the temp reaches 103, you should then hear it (them) kick in...:upyeah:

    What you describe above sound normal.
     
  5. Thanks for the reply's chaps :upyeah:
     
  6. Should switch of after 10 seconds if you turn the ignition on but don't start the bike to conserve the battery
     
  7. You'll find if you don't turn the ignition off, engine not running, the headlight switches off on its own after a set time. Found out while trying to remember how to change the bloody time... again!!
     
  8. Cheers Chaps :upyeah:
     
  9. A few photos.
