Testing Motorcycle Thermostat

Testing the thermostat on my Kawasaki VN750

[@CFG750]

Andrew, thanks for showing this process! I had someone comment on one of my VN750 videos inquiring about an overheating issue with their VN750. One of the resources I provided them was this video so they can test their's.

Well, let's say that water doesn't just boil at 100°C.. it depends on it's pressure, it could start boiling at 85°C or 200+°C depends on it's pressure, this means that depends if you are living in a mountain or at the same level than water this could variate +- 15-20 °C

[@dtsouza2519]

The thermostat should NOT be touching the bottom of the pan, it should be suspended in the water.

[@Garage_Tinkerer]

Yep

[@lollipopjuggs]

Can anyone tell me where the thermostat is located?

[@DreammoreRealty]

What about the new one, Did work at 84?

[@Garage_Tinkerer]

I haven't gotten one yet, sort of set this project to the side for a while.

[@claytonwarrington2878]

Does it matter what way the thermostat goes in?? There is a small hole on it ? Don’t know if it needs to be up top or below?

[@Garage_Tinkerer]

I don't think it's orientation(rotationally) in the housing matters.
