Default Warm up

I've read that you need the bike to warm up to 100F before riding but what about before you shut it off? I've heard that if you just start it then turn it off it can foul the plugs so what temp is it okay to shut it off at? Thanks

Me neither, where did you get this info from jerrad? You'll have to sit there in idle for quite a while for it to cool back down. Even then it's gonna be hot because you've just been riding...and now you're idling it

I don't mean that it has to cool back down or it will foul the plugs I meant that if the bike is too cool from not running long enough. I read it on a forum, a guy said he just started the bike and rode it on the trailer and shut it off and it fouled the plugs. There were a few people that agreed with him about that happeneing to them.
