Re: IOM Saturno fairing rubbing on radiator

Yeah, I have the same on my 500 IOM. There is nothing screwed in this hole on my bike. I have just installed a piece of self-adhesive rubber inside the fairing at this point so it doesn't rub on the radiator.

Re: New Saturno 500 IOM owner

Re: Resistor

Great post Alan, I am having exactly the same behaviour on my 500 IOM, the temperature gauge goes to just below the red zone and stays there, no matter what. The only difference is that it's initially good, say for the first half hour or so of riding, at no more than just above mid zone in the green...

Re: Saturno Keihin

Hi Alan, A little off topic, but may I ask where you got your thermostat? My 500 IOM has no thermostat element fitted and I've been unable to source one. I purchased my 500 IOM from a friend here in Perth who has connections in Japan and has imported quite a few bikes including a few Saturnos. MIne ...

Re: New Saturno 500 IOM owner
