hot

I bought my 00 RSV R in the spring when it was cold outside so everything was peachy up until summer came. Every time I ride it City or Highway the crotch area gets really hot. I can feel the Hot air coming from underneath me hitting my ankles and my legs. Is this common ? What should I do...

hi, going to Italy in august and i just done a rad flush and new coolant. i did a 70% Distilled water and a 30% halfrauds advanced coolant. i assume adding more water to coolant would cool better in a hotter environment? as coolant is only to stop freezing and as an inhibitor. Please correct me...

Possibly a stupid question, but I need to ask your thoughts as I've only had my Aprilia a few days...Ok here we go... Is it me or do they get incredibly hot;not engine temperature as such, although it does appear to warm up from cold very quickly, but everything metal that's attached...
