Thermostat?

Richard tea

Hello all,

Ive noticed the temp reading on my cb400 stays at cold even after an hour commute. Would my first step be to change the thermostat on her & would this be a handy enough job?

Temp sensor is not working. Check connections, if ok then get a new temp sensor.

Funnily enough, my missus has a CB400 and her bike is the same. I use it from time to time myself, and the gauge will move only slightly and stay there. As long as the bike isn't over-heating or p!ssing coolant I wouldn't worry about it too much. But like LookBehindYou said, maybe have a look at the connections and temp sensor anyway, just to be on the safe side.

Thanks lads, ill check the connections asap. I suppose its only a problem if im stuck in traffic and the fan doesnt kick in which is rare anyway.

Please Kill Me - Any idea where the idle adjuster nib/screw is located on the bike?
