gots me a 2003 kdx 200 that i have set up for very tight OZ single tk,, is geared 49-13 from memory ,,works near perfect but due to the extreme nature off the tecnical riding and i am a fit 100+ kg i am inclined to modulate the clutch a lot on the v-steep hill climbs to keep the little stroker on the power..
hence it is inclined to heat up and actuate warning light a lot,, this aint an issue but ,, i am inclined to mechanical sympathy so am letting it cool a touch b4 pressing onward and upwards ...so to speak!
the ozzie version came with a red warning light in speedo,,,,that lit up when engine coolant was getting hot ,,, before boiling point...does anyone have any idea what the temp for switch/ warning light ,,might be???
Having lovingly setup/ restored the bike i am reluctant to boil the titties off it but would like to know if the warning light is coming on at a conservitave temperature...
any ideas....?

The warning switch, Kawasaki part# 27010-1199, is located on one of your radiators. Kawasaki doesn't list the heat range in their parts diagram, but the heat range of thermal switches is usually located on the switch. Look for numbers like 100 on 95 off, etc. Those numbers are in Celsius...
If I can't do it, I'm sure someone else can!
