I do lots of trackdays and there are many summer days at Thunderhill that hit 46C and i see coolant temps creeping over 110C. I’m actually looking at curved radiators from some of bigger bikes to install.
Ohh that makes a lot of sense. If I was doing trackdays I would definitely be considering something like that, but like you said, drag racing it's not super important. And even for the little bit of street riding i'll be doing, I think it'll be okay. There's only a couple days a year that get over 30C, and the average highs on summer days are like 22-25C. I don't see it being a huge issue with how cool it is here.
