Probably not. The temperature change after the pulley change was a result of the engine turning lower revs at highway speeds (70-75 mph).

Interesting thread. My other bike is a KLR 650 which is a water cooled dual sport. I was reading that it is designed to operate at a temp of 160. A lot of the seasoned KLR guys put on a by pass so the operating temp is a constant 195 degrees. They say it gives the cylinder a longer life because their are no fluctuations in temp. Compared to an air cooled engine, the changes in temp are really insignificant.

Best regards,

I don't make the rules, I just know what they are.....

Well, I did say 'pretty much'
