Normal engine temps

[bikerjustin]

2005 800 HO
I deleted my thermostat this summer and installed a cyberdyne temp gauge. What temp am I looking for before pinning the throttle, what is my normal operating temp range, and what is too hot?

80 - 105
I set my digatron to warn at 120

too hot is 140 up for good performance but the motor will take a little more. just keep it below 140 for sure and you will not burn from heat.

OMG you are right.
I don't know what I was thinking. Too much time in the off season I guess.
I tend to idle my sled till it hits 80, then stop till I am dressed.
105 to 120, alert at 140. My bad.

BTW great quote from Kaleb,Backcountyislife!
