the one thing that makes me feel a little safer is that the oil temp only gets to about 220F
My RoadKing FP3 readings were always at 295-315F

If you look back thru this thread, numerous posts on temps including mine. I'll post it again so it is on the current page.

I have a 2017 triglide with the M8. I installed an oil cooled, remote filter, jackpot 2-1-2 head pipes and the small love jugs fans. Temp monitored with a PV.

So far my head temp runs at a constant 275 and coolant temp at 176 to 185. Very happy with that after reading thru this thread. Thanks to everyone who contributed....

Bike is stock (cat removed) with stock mufflers.
I put lowers on my 2017 RGS and have noticed similiar temps. I rode from NH to TN and back this summer with no issues though.
