My new TG is the 1st bike I've put an oil temp gauge on. Surprised me that the oil temp doesn't come up much in 35 degree temps. Moving it eventually gets to around 165, maybe 170 tops. Steady 45 mph for a few minutes and it dropped a little lower. Stops at a traffic light, it's came close to hitting 180.
This was on 2 rides about 25 miles each.
Hopefully my next ride is in a little warmer weather and the salt is gone.
I thought the oil cooler had a thermostat bypass? If not. Below what oil temp would you consider blocking it off?
