My water temp got to a high of 243 degrees, and the engine ran like a champ. No water spewing out the cap nor any warning lights.... the bike just kept running. The cooling system was awesome and it did its job.
I wonder if Honda just designed their bikes to run a little hotter. I don't think there is anything wrong with a hot running bike as long as it runs.

+100
P.S. 250 F will kill it
