hi mate,
I'm running mine on zx9rs via a bogg bros manifold.
I tapped two holes in my manifold to match the two holes in the head. I fitted my temp gauge sender into one and a take off (bypass) hose to the
other.
hope this helps.

also if I did it again I'd put the temp sender underneath the take off hose.

Whats wrong with putting the temp sender in the correct place in the hole just below the therostat housing as that is where it was fitted
originally?

By "correct" I'm guessing you mean "oem" position  . My temp gauge has an integral sender which is too large to fit in
the original position.
It was easier to tap the manifold and insert it there. It does read slightly cool though..
Yeah just to clarify, you don't have to fit a sender there BUT it's a good idea to fit a take off water pipe. That way you get some flow
through the head and it helps bleeding especially if you've blocked off the heater pipe
