Triumph Thruxton 900 AHRMA Race at Carolina Motorsports Park

Triumph Thruxton 900 AHRMA Race at Carolina Motorsports Park until the red flag because a dude went wide into the sand and then let his motorcycle fall over on himself and then couldn't move it. (Yes, he's fine, but talk about embarrassing.)

Hey, nice riding! Wondering if you have any over heat issue when running thruxton on track?Brought my thruxton to track for the first time last winter (60 to 70 f), but felt like it can over heat if the weather was any hotter.

[@motorcycletrackday]

I haven't had any issues with the engine overheating in warmer temps. I've raced in at least low 80s F. (I've been on the track at 100+ F on other bikes)
I have had issues with leg temp with my current after market exhaust which swoops up both sides of the bike (you can see it somewhat in this video th-cam.com/video/7l_wUuI-xm8/w-d-xo.html). Standing with the bike idling those pipes get pretty hot against ones legs even with exhaust wrap and a track suit. So I am in the process of going to the traditional under body style pipe for that reason.

These things can take a beating even in the hot weather but never let them idle too long because of plastic oil pump gear, my old bike was in the race in the vid, I was out there they year before!
