08 XP 800R deep powder engine temps???

[Midwest Summit]

Since the 2008 800r in the XP's have a thermostat, does anyone have a digital temp gauge on theirs and know the temp it's at while riding in deep powder?

I have an 07 800R with no stat and want to know if you can just add one from the 06 or 07 800ho's? I have an RK tek head and it looks like it is machinged for one, even though the stock head does not look like there is a spot for one.

the thermostat for the XP looks like it would not install very well into a Rev.

temp

i run a racepak on my 08 800. temps in powderr is about 105-110. not that hot. i let my sled warm up to 100 before i start out in the morning. anyoone no the hot temp. i have the warning light going off on the racepak at 135. i think its low but i find if i run on the icey trails with the scratchers down, i stay about 115-120. i hope it helps.

You can run that sled lean & mean and see temp spikes as high 160 with egt's.... Measureing coolant temps is far better way to measure temps imo than egt's
