All the suggestions listed above will help with engine's heat. As far as your preference for the head pipe, either way you won't go wrong. I'm running the V&H power duals, tuned, and it still gets a bit toasty, especially for the BSR, but the bike sure runs good. Welcome to the site.

I know these last two posts were prolly said in 'jest', but they're absolutely correct in that these motors don't have heat issues until you're in the 90's & 100's and even then not unless you're stuck in traffic and can't keep moving.  ??? spyder

Not to contradict but... I must have the only 110 that gets extremely hot while riding around town or the open road in 85+ weather/humidity here in Florida. The only resolve I have found is to remove the lowers. Just sayin... :P

We have the same bike and ride in similar weather, since temp is subjective, what do yo mean extremely hot number wise ? I mean oil temp.

Darth,

I hear you man and I have felt it too. I love gadget so I have one of those oil dip stick with a digital read out. So , yesterday was hot coming back from mount dora, and my thigh definitely felt it but the oil temp was 243 which MoCo says is way within normal operation temp.

Has anyone found out that lowering the passenger floor boards or moving them out helps with the heat for the BSR.  My wife complains about the heat when the lowers are on but is not so bad when they are off.  Just looking to see if I can make here more comfortable with the lowers on and/ or off.  The happier she is on the bike the more I get to ride.  ::)
