Default At what temp should the fan cut in?

Hiya

I have searched for posts about this but no luck so..
Does anyone know at what tempeture the fan should cut in?, (i have a 650s K3 pointy)
as i have not yet seen it spinning, the temp never goes much over 90c on hot days in traffic, its normaly between 80c and 88c .

Thanks for any help

My bike seems to run very hot (especially on hot days).

I have a 2002 KV650S.

I dont think ive ever heard a fan turn on or off, how can I tell? Could mine be broken?

Hi I ride a 2003 K3 S and yesterday the fan cut in for the first time at 100c hot day and lots of traffic.
Just to add that I have noticed that with my bike when you first start to ride the temp gets up to 93c and the drops down to 80/88 the therosat must open around 93 c

if you always in motion and not stopped in traffic, there is no reason for your fan to ever come on

I can count on 1 hand, the number of times I have heard my fan in the 129,000 miles on my SV
