Does anyone know the normal opperating tempature for a 2001 Honda CBR 600 F4i. Its my first bike and it reached 225 degrees yesterday when I was riding it? Can anyone help me.
New CBR rider.

 

Normal temps for me are about 175-190F while moving, but when stopped, I've seen up to 225F. The fan will also come on at 220 degrees F.

 

ditto to jcbrf4i. Mine is an 02 F4i and that's exactly what I see for temp.

 

175-196 while riding, once in traffic or idling reaches about 225 and at that point you should hear your fan kick in.

 

my fan kicks at exactlly 219.2f (104cº)

btw, when i start the engine, i usually wait till its 158f before i run... its that early or late enough? i know its better late and hot than early and cold.

 

JCBRF4i - Ditto to what most have said. At the lowest my bike runs 174 and then (obviously) the fan'll kick on at 220 or 225 - can't remember.

ashsammy - I usually let my bike warm up just enough to hit its idle rpms = 1,300 +/-. That tends to be around 115 degrees... I've never had a problem with it running ruff or revvin' too high at the first stop light. On colder days I may let it warm up to the 150's. If you're over in Dubai then you certainly don't have much to worry about... I'm sure your engine oil stays pretty thin all the time!
