Subfeezing is bad. In SE Arizona it can be 20s in the morning and 60s in the afternoon. I Iove the 60s but ... Sent from my Sprint phone.

coolant temperature sensor resistance versus temperature values

Coolant temperature sensor resistance versus temperature values: Measured from 1998 KLR650
 
Cowasaki specifications: 47 57 Ohms @ 80 C  - 176 F 26 30 Ohms @ 100 C 212 F
 
Measured values (1998 KLR650) 82 Ohms @ 150 F 54.5 Ohms @ 150 F 33.5 Ohms @ 210 F 25.0 Ohms @ 220 F 17.7 Ohms @ 240 F 9.9 Ohms @ 270 F
 
I thought these might be of interest as measured during a project.

Cool (no humor intended) I have wondered at times how well my T-stat was working. But usually only think about it while away on a trip and forget to test it at hm., and also did not know if they were listed anywhere. Thanks Mark W. (16.5f degrees W. Mich.)
