170's for casual and back roads riding. Up to 220 sitting at a light, and 200 or so during track days.

Running Engine Ice can help it a bit, but it's not legal for track days.

All I use is water and Water Wetter since I run it on the track too.

Yep, and 220 sitting still in summer, but once the fan comes on it never goes higher.

I noticed the fan on my friends R6 will stay on if the bike is hot *after* he shuts off the bike. My quad did this as well.Has anyone's RRdone this? Maybe it should since engines ususally heat up before cooling once they are shut off?
