FZ1: Over heating problem
#12
(19-07-16, 12:22 AM)dame link Wrote: ok so  today i changed the battery as it was  junk
i ran the bike up to temp and both fans kicked in at about  100 degrees C
it  climbed to about 103 before droping to 93 with the fans  assistance,


i took it for a 20 mile ride moitoring the temps


riding at a steady 50 mph on  a dual carriageway  she sat happily and constantly  at  87


at the lights she rose to 93 but dropped again to 87  as i rode along.

i got to a road works section where it was 20 mph and she didn't like going slowly and rose to  97, again dropping to  87 once we were clear of the road works.
i headed home  replicating the 20 mph scenario a couple of times, it always climbed  and rose as mentioned above.
I got home and left her running on the driveway waiting for the  fan to kick in, which it did at about 100. and dropped it to 98 before i stopped the motor.
i watched the temp for a while and it  rose to 109 before dropping  down steadily.

she rides fine, am i worrying about nothing? theres been no more steam.


what temperature  do you guys bikes run at whilst riding and what do they get up to  on tick over and just after turning off the motor?

i was wondering if the water pump may not be working but she was so  steady whilst just riding along.

hope i can fix it  as its a really nice bike


cheers all


Doesn't read very different to how my bike behaves. 2008 FZ1S, 15k miles, rush hour London (A406/A13 commute)
