Right.The SV gen2 radiator fan thermo-switch turns on at 208F, turns off at 198F.
Do not install a BMW switch. Cooler is not better.
Do not install a manual switch. Why would you want that?
Engines like to be hot, and 200F water temp is not hot for an engine.
Some areas of the engine will be much hotter, but if you are running a full synthetic oil there is no concern with higher water temps if everything is functioning properly.
