Anybody running one of these fairings?
If so, have you opened up the V piece a little more (cut slots) to allow more air to flow over the engine?
It's just that I've noticed my NSR seems to run at a temperature of about 65C and if stopped for a bit can nearly hit 70C.
This has me worried as I think it's way too hot. 55C would be more like it for normal running, at least that's what my RGV used to run at.
I was just thinking that the standard fairing is a lot more open than the Tyga.
Now, I know the weather is a lot hotter than normal at the moment, approx. 26-28C and this does not help cooling.
Would opening up the V piece more be worth it to help cool the engine more?
I just feel that the fairing is enclosing the engine too much and not letting enough air through to disperse the build up of heat.
I don't want to go modifying it if it will have no real effect as I like it the way it is but if it would help cool the engine, so be it.
Bike is standard apart from a set of Dog Fight pipes, Tyga 500 style fairing and wire splice done.
