100 degree heat with an air cooled engine

You guys are more adventurous than me . . . I would never ride under such scorching hot conditions. It's just too darn uncomfortable with a helmet on. An OAT of 80F is my limit and even then it is a bit too warm for me.

Btw, I encourage the use of a EOC temperature monitor. I posted about this device in detail in a previous thread. Such a device is quite small and inconspicuous, and very easy to install. It is made by Trail Tech ($43). I am using two of these devices on both of my air cooled bikes, (CB1100 and a Triumph Bonneville). They work very well, informing me of my EOC at all times, (where 250F plus is not uncommon with minimal air flow thru the cooler), as well as the indicated OAT before starting the engine prior the next ride.

i would not be able to ride much if that was my limitation lol
