@randy0017 Wondering if you are still using the temp switch from |
|
Advance Auto. Also, is the connector a match to the 690 harness? |

yes and yes. Great fit. Connects perfectly. Same connection |
|
as stock. Works great. |

Having read this article, it makes me think KTM is using the |
|
higher temp switch to help maintain a 230ish temperature to |
|
improve combustion and reduce exhaust emission. |
|
I like the idea of keeping engines cool, but is there a tangible |
|
gain for using a lower temp switch for the fan other than |
|
driving the temp gauge? It sounds like the fan would be running |
|
longer too. |
|
Makes me wonder. |

You are correct on the reason for the stock temp. |
|
If you ride in south Texas in the summer, you have no problem |
|
getting temperature in the engine. |
