I have a 2006 gsxr 1000 whats better turbo or noz?

215-225 in stop and go traffic is normal where i live (this is hawaii, so temperature is v. moderate all year), 180-190 on the freeway... this is on a gixxer750. So it sounds fine to me. Check your coolant levels to be safe! If it ever rises into the 230's... then it is running hot and you should take a closer look. If you see 240 you have a problem and should try not to ride the bike until you can fix it. In any case there is no need to take it to a mechanic... cooling problems arent that difficult to troubleshoot yourself.

Need a small trailer for my sportscar. Thought a biker's trailer would do. Only get bikeuhauls. Need a name.

edit 3/10: if you want your bike to run cooler, try putting water wetter in your coolant instead of antifreeze... i've heard really good things about that product and you should be able to get it at any decent bike shop

ATV question?

well how far did you ride? were you stuck in traffic how many miles on the bike if trhe bike is in good shape i would not worry just make sure there is coolent in it. i have a gsxr and the fans dont even kick on until 220 i think so i would not even worry about it. ( just ride faster !! )

Honda cbr 600?

Call the dealer and don't ride until they tell you if it's running hot or not. Sounds real hot to me.
It should be less than 195 degrees.
