I'm unsure of the conversion but it also sounds normal to me. My 03 runs about 180F -170F on open roads but quickly climbs to 218F-220F in slow traffic or stopped on a warm day. As others have posted as long as the fan kicks in and brings the temp down, no worries.
I am not aware of any liter-class sportbike that "runs cool"
Hope this helps.
