The motors dont like running more than about 80 deg c really, anything about 60-70 dec C is optimum running temp really.

Hope this helps

Cheers Mark, that's exactly what I needed to know, cheers mate...will turn the timing down in a bid to try and reduce the motor temps further The old bashing means full trottle so any means to keep temps down will be a great thing.
