I recently purchased a 2019 Z650 and I noticed that the temp is really high at idle. It is not hot where I live (Around 60F) and the fan doesn't kick on till it's 1 block away from the top. Do any of you have this problem as well? The bike has ~4,000 miles on it and has been "broken in". And I haven't been doing any crazy riding with super high RPMs either.

Mine does the exact same thing. I dont think its a "problem". I believe its just how they operate.

Ditto here.

The fact that it’s just one mark from the top when the fan kicks in, doesn’t mean it’s overheating: we don’t know what temperature refers to that mark 😉

Newer bikes run pretty hot due to emissions. Sounds like yours is running fine. Mine will kick on normally past 210-215 degrees F and drop it back down to 200.
