is hot?

[Dfurgi]

So my bike normally idles around 1500rpm when cold or after a short jaunt but sometimes after riding around 70kph it sits around 2000rpm or even higher. I just changed the oil on monday so I'm wondering what it could be that's making me run hot? I don't smell anything burning or see any smoke. Is it just something simple like adjusting me idle screw?

Easy enough to turn it out and try it. I have mine between 1~1250 when warm.

It's normal for idle temp to go higher when they warm up but
not that high. Try turning the idle screw down a little and if you
find that the idle gets too rough when its cold you may want to
pass a container of Techron through the tank to help clean out
the idle jets and valve seats.

what makes you think you are running hot ?
the higher Idle?

On a post KAT idle adjuster thumb screw is on left side of fairing just inside the opening near your knee

My idle will vary depending on temp. and air quality

When I fire mine bone cold it idles a bit above 1000 RPM and one she's warmed up, it idles smooth at a hair under 1500 RPM

Techron?
