[QUOTE="Ignacio, post: 1204116, member: 434"] No, it's pointless in my opinion. It doesn't hurt the bike in the least even in the most extreme temperatures, and only costs an incremental bit of fuel at an idle level. Modern cooling systems work exceedingly well and the notion that that a bar, two, or more on a temp gauge is somehow bad is a myth. Unless your system is boiling over or your sitting still 5 or 10 minutes or more (inwhich case I'd turn off the key)...I think its a pointless exercise and actually places more wear on the starter.
