Do pointy SVs not have a temp gauge on the clocks?

My Raptor has, I can't ride it until it
a) gets over 30degrees, cause it conks at anything below
b) its got over 80 degrees, or it bounces and bucks like a bronco:pale: Over that shes perfectly safe:p

An SV650 ain't an animal so I don't really fink its necessary.

In an aircooled engine, particularly a tuned motor, maybe.

In your watercooled SV, particularly a Pointy with an engine temperature gauge, no.

I know an old battered SRX600 thats got one, but only because its old and battered and needs a bit of monitoring:rolleyes:
