a bit like this?
The 18mm seemed to work fine. It was a bit tight and I found that I was happier with the angle of the radiator slightly more "relaxed" .. i.e. I moved the lower two bolts forward a little which gave the pipes a bit more space but otherwise it's worked ok since installation.. It's a super helpful upgrade although I do think it's possibly more giving info of the coolant output from the cylinder rather than the temp of the coolant going into the cylinder... it's still been very useful though, and allows me to be thorough with my warm-up routine.
Also it turns out everything I thought I knew about when the bike gets hot, was wrong. When I'm flat out it's chilling.. but sitting at a traffic light for 2 mins and she gets hot...I guess this is why we test
I couldn't really see a way of feasibly connecting it on the input side.. .I think arguably you may be able to just take a signal from the temp sensor which is already there (i.e. the one the bike uses) but I didn't know enough at the time to be ableto tell whether my takign an additional reading from it might affect the reading somehow and I didn't want to mess with the bike's inputs are it was working.
