View Full Version : what is the safe water temp? mikeswrx02 16 October 2006, 20:49 hi, my gsxr600ke always nearly reaching water temp 100degC at heavy traffic times. sometimes 105degC. is it safe to ride on at 105????:wonder: cheers Paddi70 16 October 2006, 21:03 Normal temp should be 80 ish once warmed up, and what you have after a good ride out once stopped. If your hitting that temp on the move would sujest you get it looked at. Nido 16 October 2006, 21:34 If it's only doing it during heavy traffic then shouldn't be a problem - they all do that sir!! Check your owners book, but I think it says you only need to worry if it hits 130 :eek: The fan on mine cuts in at 105 (I think), and whilst it hits that point very quickly in traffic, it never goes above. No problem I'd say :thumb: Sbradley 16 October 2006, 22:10 Seconded. My K4 750 runs around 105 all the time in town. No problem :) SB mikeswrx02 17 October 2006, 18:59 cheers all, Yeah, it hits around 100-105 in very heavy traffic. once on a clear road for a few minutes, it lowers quickly. so i have nothing to worry about then.:luxhello: Sonic_Danny 18 October 2006, 09:55 My K4 600 runs about 105 in traffic too! brickboy 18 October 2006, 12:13 I once used that Redline Water Wetter stuff in my old Volvo T4, it did reduce running temps slightly, don't know if it's worth a try in a bike engine |
