ok guys i need some answers, with only 1100 miles on this new bike it seems to a lot hoter then my 06rsv after tracing down the main heat source it appears to be coming from the chrome clutch cover on the right side as sitting on the bike ( rear big cover). today i rode 5 miles and it was hot enough to feel thru my boot and pant leg after returning home i used a contact themp. and had a temp of 162 is this normal. i did check to insure the fan is running,the oil level ok only difference from the 06 is the chrome rad coveing,06 doesnt have one any suggestions thanks steve:confused24::confused24:

I don't know the temp or why.. but I find my feet get unbearably hot in the summertime on this bike.. that's why I added the wind deflectors (which are not so effective) and the longhorn pegs. I just figured it was due to the lower cowling trapping the heat in..

wish they had vents you could open like the Ultra.
