Hi, I have tried to find threads on the same issue I have with the temp gauge and/or sensor, but didn't find my exact problem, which is; the temp read out switches on and off at completely random interludes. This first occurred last year and I was quick to replace the left-hand side sensor (from...

Hi friends im New to the Suzuki TL1000r, and i want to know at what temp it is supposed to operate normally and at what temp it will turn on the cooling fans. Can you guys help me. Also i want to know what type of coolant is the best for the tropical climate because i live in Puerto Rico where...

On my new TL I need to do a couple more things. First an oil change. Is there any issue putting full synthetic in the bike? I belong to a co-op and the price difference between semi and full is negligible, so unless it'll cause issues I'd just put full in. My coolant is running low, but instead...

Could anybody tell me the correct temp before the fans kick in on a TLR. Mine fans only come in at aroud 117 degrees and then sits around 120 degrees in stationary traffic.:banghead

Hi all. Got another one for you if anyone knows off hand what temperature the fan should kick in on a TL1000S as it got to 100c on the clock and still hadn't come on. I just tested the fan and it spins up no problem with a direct voltage put through it. Thanks for you help.

For some reason, my temperature gauge is telling me that my engine is running at 20 degrees C. Dead sensor perhaps? I presume that this will have an effect on fuel consumption??? :O

I am having some heat issues and was wandering if anyone has experienced the same, or may be able to offer some advice. I have a '97 TLS with an '02 TLR motor (radiator is still from the '97.) I have started having this problem just recently. When idling, the radiator fan comes on at 216F...

I have noticed that right from start up the gas exiting the r/h can is noticeably hotter than from the l/h can. Why is this and does it mean something bad is going on in the motor? Cheers, Paul

whats up had my tl for a couple of months but during driving through the city the temperature just rises and the fans dont turn on ........anybody know the temperature they should click on:banghead

What is the range for operating temperature for a TLR? I bought my 1st TLR and I'm getting cooked on the inside of my legs! It that normal? Should I be loading up on Water Wetter?:banghead
