Riding home the other night...not riding it hard, honest, the temp warning light came on and the temp display was at max. Bike was running fine the fan was not on and no F1 codes.
It got me home without over heating, checked the following day when cold, radiator is full and there is coolant in the bottle.
the light came on as soon as I turned the ignition on and the guage was at max. She was a bit of a sod to start but it did start, I noticed the temp display was going up and down like a yo-yo, when the was no bars lit the revs would climb to what they should be cold but as soon as the display showed warmth the revs dropped to nearly stall (still cold)
I have done some looking around and asked on another local forum and I have come to the conclusion it's the ECT sensor,
1. Does this sound right?
2. Is that the one located on the thermostat housing between the heads?
3. Is it OK to ride until I get it sorted nxt weekish?
Thanks ( hope this makes sense)
