I know this is an old post/topic but i actually did a "search forum" before creating a new post!
I was just wondering about engine temperatures...sitting in 2 1/2 hour interstate delay in Tennessee yesterday my Brent Oil guage registered 250F+.
The first time I looked down and noticed it I actually heard a POP under my seat (ok...not from me but the bike) and I started searching for oil or something!! Everything was fine but suppose the air box had an issue or something??
Anyway, my beloved TBA made it another 5 hours so no issues.
