Yeah, that oil tank gets HOT! One of the main reasons I need to fab up an new electrical cover... the side with the fuses and such has a sharp cover, I'm going to fab up a new one thats shaped more like the oil tank.
Right now when I stop, I get the choice of sharp edge in my thigh or hot oil tank. The Pipes are Open, its an interesting sound. Not sure if I'll keep them that way or not. Depends on if I get a ticket '-) I've roughly put 200miles on it in the month I've had it, but its still only April in Michigan...
