  1. just brought bike back from mot and belt change (2011 848 evo)
    And I know it was warm ,only moving in slow traffic the temp gauge normally around
    70 to 80 but it went up to 105 degrees then I switched off at traffic lights
    Is this normal ? How hot do they get?
    Help please

  2. Normal. Fans will then kick in.

  6. Well what is the max temp before you start to worry and turn engine off
    What temp do the fans normaly come on at?

  7. The temp fluctuates, have to say I've not noticed mine getting that high.

    Where is the temp sensor?

  14. I'll look over the lot
    Only it's frightening when you see 100' on the clocks

  15. In my own experience, they don't like to sit still. Not saying they can't cope, but they most definitely like to move. I wouldn't sit too long with it running. Its a Ducati, ride it.

  16. It's normal. So long as the fan kicks in and drops below 100, I wouldn't worry. Keep your eye on the coolant level though.

  20. I never seen the 100, I'm a scrambler beardy type.
