and I (clive)  will add a couple more points:
120C  approx  112,7 ohms
140C approx 71,2 ohms

Reference point - just checked mine.. (unknown)

45F (7.22222C) - 4500 (4.5k) ohms..

Which looks about right..

and all the above are the same spec. as the Mercedes coolant temp sensor
B11/2 for KE fuel injection (clive) "

"I meant to post this some time ago, but I had some difficulty finding the
correct data.
Assuming that the R1150RT and the R1100RT share the same sensor and RID,
then a gentleman named Bill Moss once did a study about the correlation
between bars on the RID and temperature of the fluid at the sensor. He did
this with a digital temperature gauge and a carefully heated pot of oil. I
hope he doesn't mind my sharing this. He did publish the information on the
big list, so I think it's OK. 
The results were:
