2013 breakout 103, pv2, d and d 2n1, fuel moto ac, and a fuel moto map. The highest ive seen at speeds and in hot weather( over 90) was about 270. Traffic causes the heat to rise no matter what bike or tune you have. As far as oil temps I have no intention on monitoring it. Sometimes I have found that even the pv temp display can be a little distracting. Bottom line is air cooled bikes run hot and they have for many many years. If the bike is tuned decent and running well, keep the oil changed and enjoy the ride.

Yep, I have close to the same mods as you... and am seeing temps going down the road at 195˚-205˚. In stop and go traffic on a hot as hell day, I topped out at 240˚.

2014 limited with V&H Power Duals a/c and Monster Rounds. PV2 with map from Fuel Moto runs about 210 avg. Saw it as low as 199 in 85 degree heat on the highway.
