Greetings,

Can someone check the temp of their final drive? Mine gets very hot after a 25 mile drive. Too hot to keep your hand on.

I kept forgeting to check for you after I ride so it gave me an excuse for a little ride. After about 25 miles mine gets pretty warm, I can keep my hand on it for a second or two but that is it. It was in the lower 80's when I was riding.

I haven't changed the diff. fluid yet but if I recall correctly it doesn't hold much.
