Default how to adjust radiator sensor

hi there, i am new to this forum .. and i have an 03 r6

please help me...


my temperature reaches 100+ C and the radiator fan does not automatically turn on (fan motor is ok, fuse is ok and the relay is ok). is there any way to lower the temp sensor to below 90?


thanks in advance for your help

i just tested my bike this morning and waited for the fan to turn on, it shows that 101 degree celcius (the coolant reservior smoked and boiled) before the fan goes on. then it will stop at 99 C.

again, is there any way to lower the rad fan sensor sensitivity? or are there any problem with my bike???

your radiator cap is probably not holding pressure and the coolant is boiling prematurely.
