Ok, this is what i probably should of mentioned my bike has;
1. Big Bore kit.
2. P/C III Power commander
3. Race chipped.
4. RG3 Pipes
5. Nulon Green Long Life Concentrated Coolant
6. Water pump impeller upgrade.
It pushed 173HP on the Dyno (rear wheel).
My next purchase will be the microtec ecu chip from Chris.
The bike runs at a consistent temp of 93 degrees Celsius (199F) and will get to 101-102 degrees Celsius (215F) stuck in traffic, thats stand still for 4-5 minutes...
The difference with the modification to the guards is the heat escapes very quickly thus not allowing it to over heat...and once you accelerate the temp will drop 8-10 degrees immediately...
I hope this has answered some questions...
