I obtained a oil temperature dipstick through thumper stuff…cool. Now just what is the operating temperature range for the non-fuel injected 1999 F650?
• With outside temps in the 60-degree range I see 170 to 190 depending on the amount of fire (throttle) being used. So far on a day with maybe 90 to 95 degrees out and traveling at say 80 mph’s I’ve seen 220 on my Thumper Stuff gage. That’s been the highest so far, hope not to see much higher and if I do I’ll be slowing down. Good Ride’n Bill, Wamer #1021 CA. • I’ve hit 235 when off-roading. ambient temp and riding conditions make a big difference. you can always check your dipstick by sticking it in boiling water. 212 degrees, minus approx 1.5 deg for every 1000 feet elevation, something like that. The dipstick can be calibrated by holding the bezel firm with your thumb, and rotating the dipstick with pliers. (this only applies to the non-liquid filled version, don’t know about the other one). • I have been using the Thumperstuff oil temp gauge on my 1997 bike for the past couple of years and I have been very happy with it. It is nicely made, but I agree with Geoff, scribing the oil l
