new 110" real hot!
went for a trip this weekend with some people I ride with one of them has a new 110" and it was overheating badly droping oil pressure in 44-46 weather the oil at one point was actualy boiling in the crankcase smelled like we were cooking it in a frying pan. Eny one had a similer problem? bikehas about 1300 miles. Do the oil coolers have a thermostat in them? And how does a air cooled motor run that hot in cool weather?

These new 110 motors run really lean in factory form. I was having a ton of problems with my bike running too hot before I bought the SERT and richened up the fuel a bit plus I enabled the engine idle temperature management system. I have not had it overheat on me since. I should have the DTT Wego IID next week which will allow me to tune the bike to whatever AFR I want. I will most likely tune it to 13.8 and see how much better she runs. In addition, the new rineharts should be installed in the next couple of weeks which will eliminate the crossover pipe and kill all the heat it generates.

RE: new 110" real hot!
I had this problem with my 2007 SEUC and when I took her in for her 1000 mile service they told me the head gasket on the rear cylinder was bad and they have to replace the engine. I am currently waiting for the engine to come in and have my bike back. I also decided while it was down awaiting a new engine that it is the perfect time to have the Rinehart True Duels/ SERT/ and SE/AC added. The first indication I had was the badge on the rear head yellowed at around 700 miles from the excessive heat.

If you buy an SERT, will the dealer richen up the fuel delivery for you? I read a few posts on using the SERT, and it looks fairly complicated.
