Title: Wow, this thing is HOT!!
Post by: Y2K6GS500F on July 22, 2007, 05:02:59 PM
I went for a real nice 1hr long ride. It was sunny, but a little warm today at around 90F. When I got home I let the bike sit for about 10min, then checked the oil. OMG, The Oil Cap was extremely hot!!! I'm guessing about 200F. I literally had to use a potholder to unscrew it.  Oil level was good though.  :thumb:
