at a loss

[hell yea]

when my bike is at operating temp and i accelerate

my temp gauge drops all the way to the botom as my revs increase

but if i hold the clutch in it operates as it should

does any one know why this may be :confused24:

[Dano]

I would check the wiring behind the headlight, more than likely a bad ground where those two devices enter the wiring harness

You can check the terminal on temp sender....under the riders right side,

remove the trianguliar side grille, (2 screws) under you will find 2 sensors....the sensor with bullet connector is temp gauge....very common to work loose, remove, squeeze ends a bit, reinstall.

 

The other sensor with flat connector is fan thermoswitch.

[hell yea]

will try that in the morning

When you hold the clutch in and it operates as it should are you sitting still or moving?

[hell yea]

moving its an electrical prob nothing to do with-air flow cant work out why the clutch makes a difference though

very od bike runs fine just temp Gage runs off taco wen clutch disengaged lol

like i sead clutch in temp gauge works as it should clutch out temp drops as revs increase

:detective:

Probably vibration was shaking the terminal as you revved up the engine.
