Default Exhause temp difference

I noticed this morning on my 1200 custom that the exhaust temp from the rear cylinder gets hot faster that the exhaust temp of the front cylinder. I have not measured temp but there is a significant difference. Even after warming up the front remains noticeably cooler. Is this as sign of something wrong ?

Nope. The rear cylinder always runs much hotter than the front cylinder. Ride it and don't worry, all is well.
