[QUOTE="v65, post: 111383, member: 1773"] The '06's seem to operate at a higher number of bars. Mine was at 6 bars in traffic this weekend, arrived there quickly and held there for the duration, normally at three and four bars when out cruising. Have seen another post reporting the same. According to the manual this is not overheating, but begs the question of whether the '06's actually run hotter or have different readouts. With all the mods to keep the heat off the rider... So that this is not a complete hi-jack, wiring in a separate manual switch was a common thing to do with v65's for a short period of time. Then someone noticed/reported on the SabMag group that NAPA has a very nicely detailed catalog of thermoswitches. All you need is thread pitch, they have a variety of switches with different on and off temps (damn, I just had the right terminology for that, started typing and out the door it went, stupid CRS :lol: ).
