anyone can tell me this? i have done a search but all i can find is the oil pressure, anyone knows the temp to know which guage i should get?

thanks a lot

c'mon there must be someone with an oil temp guage in here

 

My HKS gauge (metric) will get up to 125C max on a hot summer day in traffic. Normal cruising on a hot day and it's around 100-110C.

In the winter, it is lower, sometimes in the low 80s (celsius) but probably averages 95C. This is with 10w-30 Penzoil.

I have an R2 so I have dual oil coolers. The sensor for my oil temp gauge is in the oil pan. Shifting to a higher gear will bring the temp down 5-10 degrees fairly quickly on the flats when just cruising.

A guy I knew with an R1 always seemed to have oil temps about 10 degrees lower than mine...not sure why tho.

Hope this info helps...

 

all right so what's the range on your guage?

thanks

It goes from 40-150C. Here's a pic...it's the one on the right.
