Out on the road, I couldn't get the temp over 170f. I was purposely leaving the bike in 2nd & revving around 7500-8500 to get the temp up. It wouldn't budge. When stopped waiting for lights, it wont top 180f. Engine Ice gets from me.

KC-10 FE out...
I'm always wondering if its possible to keep the temps too cool? Mbe oil temps not warm enuff? Just a question for bouncing around......
