Safe operating Temp 00 zx6r

Post by DanSharp »

Just wondering what the normal temp range is for a 2000 zx6r just doing normal commuting in spring vic.
On the highway it sits around the 70c mark but when slowly riding in traffic or what not i just saw it hit 99c is this safe??
Cheers

if you look up the manual, which u obviously don't have... you will see that above 115 degrees, the system will start showing warning signals...99 is hot but nothing to be worried about ;) a manual gives you lots of references that may be useful ;)

no worries dan :D i think u will find too that at 99 the fan hasnt even kicked in yet, tho i could be wrong... think it kicks in somewhere around the 105... so if the fan isnt on yet then you are definitely sweet 8)
