When it comes to scooter tuning, diagnostics and performance testing, temperature tells you more than almost any other variable. Knowing exactly how hot components get during real-world riding or on the dyno can reveal running issues, highlight developing problems and help you tune with confidence. The challenge, of course, is that many of the hottest and most stressed parts of a scooter engine are difficult – or unsafe – to touch.
That’s where the SIP Infrared Thermometer 365° comes in. This compact handheld device allows you to take precise surface-temperature readings instantly and without contact, thanks to its built-in infrared sensor. Simply aim, press, and read — no need to dismantle anything or risk burning your fingers.
Designed for workshop, road and trackside use, the SIP 365° offers fast, reliable measurements even in hard-to-reach areas. That makes it ideal for checking cylinder temperatures at multiple points, monitoring engine case hotspots after a hard ride, or measuring brake-disc and tyre temperatures during performance testing. For tuners using a dynamometer, it provides an easy way to compare before-and-after temperature behaviour across different runs.
