I've been surfin about the forum and haven't heard of anyone talking about the temp of their bike. Being a person that takes very good care of my toys, I think about these things sometimes. I'm currently fiddling with jets and airbox mods...

I know, I know; If you play with your airbox, you go blind.

I sealed my airbox back up and there is less get-up-and-go and the heat only went down a small bit.

Any how, I've upjetted to a #127 main jet and it is creating a little more heat than before. It seems counter-intuitive compared to my scooter tuning days. Bigger jet = less heat... visa-versa.


Dont laugh if this is nothing, but it is reading 250F at the outside of the top of the head, but about 215F when I stick a thermometer in the oil cap on the top of the tranny. All after a 20min ride at mostly 50-55mph.

If you know what your bike running temp is, post it up with the mods you've done. I'm waiting for qlink to reply with the numba's.
