You're right, Kat.

We could remove the stock thermostat, and relocate the stock thermostat housing closer to the outlet from the cylinder head. Then we could place the Thermo-Bob downstream from the stock thermostat housing, somewhere near the original location of the stock thermostat housing.

Of course, we do need to contact Watt-man, and see if any of his different Thermo-Bob kits will fit the hoses of the RX3.
