[QUOTE="Ignacio, post: 1449442, member: 434"] Funny...and not funny. I was remembering back a dozen years ago when one thread was complaining about the heat too....turning out that they WERE wearing more or less what you described. And I remember the forum having to ask riders to clarify from that point on what exactly they were wearing...and then the OP often going suspiciously silent. But I'm sure this time has to be different. :) Go buy some metalized bubble insulation from your big box hardware store and put a layer between the tank and the engine. It will/might help...a bit if the part that's hot to you is the tank. Gen 1's aren't any hotter than newer bikes.....it's the same 1300cc engine and same amount of heat. It's how they manage the heat including bleeding fuel back to the tank from the fuel rail. Gen 2 and later were redesigned. [/QUOTE]
