nope, the tank and frame are known for that. really cant do anything bout that. just had a topic bout that and like stated before the frame is built to pull heat from the engine which means it has to go somewhere. u can try those tank grips but ive never tried them, and i usually dont have my legs wrapped around the tank.

After my first full day driving my 954 I know exactly what you're talking about with the hot tank compared to my F4i. With heat index at 100F today it got a little warm but I'm actually looking forward to this "feature" in fall and spring when it's 40F in the mornings.
