Crankcase Oil Temp
Asking an important questoon about my bikes oil temp.
*2015 FXDB (Street Bob)
*780 total miles on bike
*V&H Necked VO air intake installed
*Python 3" Mamba Exhaust installed
*H-D LCD electronic oil level and temp guage installed.
*91 degrees out side...
After a half hour of riding, my oil temp guage is reading at or around 228 degrees. Is this a normal reading or do I have a problem I need to have looked at?
All help will be great.

I don't use an oil temp gauge but I moniter my Engine Temp using my Power Vision tuner.
If you don't have a tuner, I highly recommend getting something to help with the fuel that gets sent to your engine - stock AFRs are pretty lean.
I will say that if you do a lot of stop and go riding in 90+ temps, the temp of your engine can get pretty high. I use the Wards Cooling Fans and they work great, even in North Texas.
