Never that high !
I think the max i have ever seen my temp get is like 93 sitting at a light talking to some one
but 200 seems crazy high
does it just flick up that high and come back down ?

<--- canadian hahaha sorry i didnt do the temp converstion :(
my bad LOL
Your bike shouldn't see 240. Mine does ~185 normal operating temp, and goes up to around 225 in stop and go traffic. The fan should kick in around 225 and keep you under 230. I'd get it checked out, might have a temp sensor going bad or something. Bit beyond my mechanical knowledge (which is limited, hah).

mine does keep about 190-200 when going in traffic, sometimes up to 225 and then fan kicks in. when driving highways it holds about 175 steadily.
no, 240C is 464F.

try running engine ice or water wetter and see if it comes down, u really shouldnt be seeing any higher than really 232 unless ur tracking her and beating the hell outta her non stop. if the new coolant doesnt work get it checked out, when was last time u even changed ur coolant.

My fan kicks in a 229. Idling in traffic can get to 231 then fan brings it back down to 230 or 229. Highest I've EVER seen is 232.

I'm at about 175-185 on the highway but when can see 200 at a stop light even with temps in the 60's...heits 220 when I get home and I just sit and idle...fan kicks in at 223 I think
