Engine temp question...
What would be considered normal operating temps on a 929? Reason I ask, I have never had a bike with a temp guage before now, and I am just curious as to what the temp range should be. I do have the FSM on my computer, but that thing is hard to search through in .pdf form.

My guess... around 190-200
My SV runs around 180 open highway up to 210 on a hot day in town. My 1125 runs around 200 all the time.

my 750 runs 165-170 open highway, 185-190 if i hit a long light in traffic on a hot day. rarely see 200+ dave would have the best answer, since i believe he's got one

That's interesting. From my memory, I have seen it up to around 210 or maybe a little more in heavy traffic and I was kind of starting to worry about it being that high. I never heard any pinging at all (not even sure if I could on this engine or not) and the fan was on for sure. Hopefully Ed will post up on this one. (I'm not sure who he is yet, but I do appreciate any and all help on this.)

I dont think I've ever seen anything over 220. The bike will continue to warm up with the fan until it hits about 220 then it levels off
