The fins are hot enough that the paint is peeling from the fins. I can only test the fins in the dark and it sure looks like they're glowing red. In any case the bike will burn you bad when in traffic!

This guy is completely full of it. on 4/23 he wrote in the tranny form that he was going to look at an 07 bike the next day. on the same day he wrote that he had an 07 that was knocking on the engine forum. on the 24th he wrote that he purchased the bike. on the 25th he wrote that he was tired of all of the lies and BS from the dealer and was demanding satisfaction. How many lies and BS can a dealer tell in 24 hours or less if you are riding the bike enough to realize that it has a problem?

Major BS.
