Dumb question (temp gauge)

Yes call me stupid :D
I have an NC30 yet it's mostly running NC35 gear, on an NC35 temp gauge what is the temp reading at the first marker after 80 degrees, i am assuming 90 degrees and not the 100 degrees i had previously feared in another post of mine?

Thanks again for the help, Karl :)

Sorry to bump again, but is there really 47 VFR owners that don't know the temperature their bikes are running at?
Yes, yes, i know i don't know the temp for the question above, i'm just going to assume it's 90 degrees, as the marker before the red would surely be 100 degrees??
Karl :)

it is pressurised anyways...so it can go over 100... ;)

Mine runs about half way and if I stop....it gets hotter...

I reckon red zone is prob 105-110 kind of temp.

Im looking to put a digital temp gauge & get rid of the standard needle one. Anyone done this before? Recommend a digital temp unit? I dont mean a acewell/koso full dash unit, just a digital temp gauge.

Thank you guys, as i thought, but just needed clarification.
As for the system being pressurized, yes the bike can go above 100 degrees with out boiling but it's not ideal, now i'm much happier riding my bike knowing it's at 90 degrees, rather than the 100 i feared :D
90 degrees is pretty good, considering i'm riding it in bkk traffic and the temp here at the moment is 35 - 38 degrees :)

Daytona make a couple of good digital temp gauges. I use a cheap one from a go kart - plug and play, works a treat.
