2015 r3 roadster my question is how hot is too hot?
My oil tank burns my left leg, exhaust burns my right.
Does anyone know what the temp is normally on a 2 hour ride outside temp today is +38c
It was still very hot when I was riding in the early spring outside temp +10
 
All year models of Rockets get hot in extreme heat after an hour or so of spirited riding. Here it gets Africa hot in August. Tarzan wouldn't ride a Rocket in that kind of heat. I never noticed the left side as much as the exhaust side on any of my Rockets. Don't forget to talcum up before the ride.
 
I belive I'm noticing the left side oil tank due to my foot pegs being all the way forward. I'm just worried the temp sensor doesn't work.
