[QUOTE="ionbeam, post: 1037150, member: 277"] TMI. For the love of dog, why did Yamaha display the coolant temperature in numbers? When the Gen II came out with more bars to display temperature than the Gen I had we enjoyed two years of posts asking how many degrees per bar and obsessing over having one bar more showing than another FJR next to them. Put one on/off idiot light on it and be done with it [IMG]https://www.fjrforum.com/forum//public/style_emoticons/default/laugh.png[/IMG] Now we have an entire new generation of FJR owners that won't be able to sleep at night or ride during the day because their cooling system is showing 4 degrees more/less than they think it should; varies with the speed of the vehicle; varies with ambient temperature; varies with having the side louvers open or changed after they installed a rear tail light flasher.
