Why is it my bike is perfect for me in every aspect, design, style, quality craftsmanship, she has it all. I would be completely happy with her if it wasn't for this heat issue. I am running synthetics and installed an oil temp gauge. today in Lakeland, temp is hi 60 low 70s, she got above 240 and the EITMS system kicked in (whcih I thought wasn't suppose to until 287*). I have worried and fretted about this heat issue since I bought the bike (08 EGC) and am getting tired of it. NExt step is to install an oil cooler but, let me ask you, whats the difference, aesthetically, between an oil cooler hanging off the frame and a radiator?? I don't see any. Dont like the look, don't wanna do it, but I can't keep riding with the engine getting this hot. Someone throw me some advice here, I am at my wits end with this heat.
