I've ridden my CB11 on dozens of 110+ days here in Phoenix. Can't avoid that if you ride everyday. I've never seen the oil temp light, but if I did, I'd be seriously concerned. The manual states that it will light at a frighteningly high temperature ( I think it was something like 340F). Most oils are already starting to break down at that temp.
I have managed to overheat the CB750 (also equipped with an oil cooler) on two occasions in the last 20 yrs. Both times involved standing still while idling for 20-30 minutes in 100+ temps. Now that I know better, I just shut it off if I'm not going to be moving for a few minutes.
