Is my bike over cooling?
My 14s temp gauge sits a 1 bar when im rolling down the roads up here in Denver, its cold here by the way. When I stop the temp will rise a bar or to, but soon as I get to moving cold air through the radiator again the temp drops back to 1 bar quickly. Does this sound like a stuck open thermostat? Or do all 14's do this in cold weather?

Inspected thermostat, closed when cool, opens when hot. Must be normal
