  1. just to give you a bit of knowledge

    a vehicles cooling system is a pressurised system .


    the system will be classed as overheating within a general range of 112-124 degrees celcius as it is under pressure so boils higher than 100deg c


    The average normal running temp of an engine is between 82 & 96 degrees celcius .There is a Thermostat ( a temperature controlled valve) in the system that stays closed until the coolant in the engine reaches a certain temp then it opens and allows the coolant to circulate through the radiator ..( normal running temp )


    The cooling fan is designed to kick in at a certain temperature and under normal riding conditions ( ie riding as moving air going through the radiator cools it down) will not operate until circumstances changes ie you are stationary or slow moving traffic then it will kick in to cool it down .This still does not mean your engine is overheating though ..


    The temperature gauge will have a display that will vary on conditions ie .. summer normal temp will be higher than winter .


    If it goes all the way to the top and stays there with steam coming out then stop , allow the bike to cool.down and investigate.Same as if it goes all the way to the top and then drops to the bottom .


    Anywhere else in the guage as long as it rises from the bottom and fluctuates a few dashes over the journey then i would just keep riding .

     

    Thank you mate for expert explain me this how it's system cooling works. This is what I wanted.

  2. Hope this is useful to you :thumb:

     

    Not really. I have this manual and I was studying it. I'm wondering how many miles I can do with normal riding of this motorbike. Maybe pump is not power enough? Coolant liquid?

    Any suggestions?


    What about yours motorbikes? How many miles you can do without stopping?

  3. Looks ok to me , it's only half way up the scale . If it gets up to or beyond the gap in the scale next to the "H" then that is in the higher temperature range at which point the fan should kick in .

     

    Yesterday was 3 lines to max but error of temperature was not showing. So what about long trips? Every 40 miles stop for 1h to cool down system?

  4. MotoBike - KTM RC 125 - 2018

    Brand new.


    Today temperature is 6C

    Riding bike few minutes - around 7 miles

    LCD display showing high temperature. It's normal after few miles?

  5. I have provisional licence with CBT. Never have insurance.


    How I can go back if I buy motorbike from second hand motorbike after test drive and home is about 100 mils far away? Tax road I can buy in 5 minutes but what about insurance? Can I buy 1 day insurance and ride motorbike this same day? After when I want comeback to home I want to search for insurance fit for me.

    Any advice is helpful.

    Thank you.
