The sensor with the blue top is the Hyosung part. The other is a spare i bought, because it was just cheap enough and i don’t want to have to search later… but that’s it wired up and installed in the bike. Hope it helps. Again, you can see there is no part sticking into the flow of coolant, but i’ve watched the fan switch on. please note, you WILL need to get the connector also, as the hyosung one won’t plug in, assuming you want to make it nice…Than you Simon. I’ll take a look at the coils and plug caps. I know I bought coils, but i can’t remember if i got around to changing them out. It does run fine once started, it”s just a hard starting bike. I haven’t had many this hard to start. I know the Lithium takes different charging rates, but from what I could tell, they do alright in vehicles. The upside is the lighter weight, smaller size, and increased power density. But still, I may just get an AGM and see if it’s better. I appreciate the input!
Hi. Just a quick thought here, but wondering why they put in a manual switch. I have a 2007 GT650r, and noticed as it was idling, it heated up and the fan never kicked on. Pulled the electrical plug (on the switch) and shorted the wires, and the fan kicked on, so bad fan temp switch. The only one i could find, is being sold from ‘Whygostock.com’. Good place i think, but they’re selling it for $98 USD, plus shipping. IF “hyosungwarehouse.com’ had them, it’d be $26 USD. Being the thrifty person i am, i actually found one on ebay and it’s supposedly for a Hisun 400 UTV. Well, thread pattern fits, and the fan kicks off. Never got too hot, at least not like before. You’d have to wire in the new plug since the connector is different, but my point is its a working fan switch. The reason i’m replying is that maybe they went “extra” frugal with a manual switch, as the one you have may not be working. Just keep an eye on the temp and see if the fan kicks on.
Thank you for the reply, Marcel.
Unfortunately, I didn’t fully state that i’m (somewhat) familiar with these bikes, and of course bikes in general. What i was actually looking for was the repair manual part number, so i could research the stock jet size. As stated, the electronic manual i have lists a 125 front, and 122.5 rear (as the rear is smaller due to the heat from the front cylinders, at least that’s the theory i found), but the paper manual lists a 130 for both. That’s a size difference of 5 in the front, and a 7.5 in the rear. As per your post, that’s above the OK variation
And, since i have a modified airbox, i’m thinking it will be larger than stock. BUT, the PAPER manual starts out bigger. Now, as you know, it’s better to go rich than lean, but I was hoping to find the starting point, at the very least.
Again, thanks for the reply. I appreciate it.
