I have a 2007 695 with the DP Termi/ECU kit.

With the 15t sprocket I typically run in the 210-230F range although weather extremes might change that a bit.

With the 14t sprocket I was typically running in the 240-260F range.

Ducgrl... it's raining here so I'm not riding right now..(kind of a wimp) as soon as the weather clears I'm going out and I will watch the gauge to see what the temp reads... [coffee]

Ditto on the rain here too! I'm proud to be a wimp, especially if it keeps me safe!

Anyway, I have been noticing the higher temps as well but still don't see 200+ as somegirl just said. Perhaps I am not riding the bike hard enough! Highest temps I have seen are in the 190's in 80 degree weather. I'm one of those blue S4R owners though with Arrow exhaust and the desire to change out the ECU. 14t sprocket installed and feel that it makes a difference but maybe it is just my imagination!

You will have much lower temps than I do as my bike is air-cooled and you have a radiator. ;)

I felt that the 14t sprocket worked better on an S4R than it does on my bike. [thumbsup]

Hi, hope that everyone has been having lots of fun, just wanted to add a new pic of my bike as she now has her new pipes, very happy, have not changed the sprocket yet, not sure that i will need to as the pipes seem to have made her a bit smoother.  Anyway I am VERY happy considering I thought that I would not get the pipes until next year sometime. 



Happy days
