    temperature guage only shows correct temperature when bike is at standstill and has warmed up. Once moving, and at speed, temp guage slowly moves to "cold". Anyone else have this happen?

    Triple that what Chuck said. Also check to see if a colder thermostat was installed over a stock one.

    What the hell is a Honda?? & what you guys talkin about "water cooled";)

    Yup thermostat may be stuck open or sendin unit, also check your anti-freeze is good and the proper mixture!
