Went for a ride yesterday in the mountains , the temp was about 78 degrees we got into some technical single track  and  noticed the vapor tach temp gauge was as high as 217 degrees before I decided to turn it off to let it cool. Most of the day it ran 145 degrees as long as we had a good pace.I have had this bike for about 3 months and it has a 13.5 to 1 compression piston so I know that is part of the heating issue. When it's time to rebuild I think I will put a stock piston back in. So how hot is to hot? Exracer2
