My M2 starting running a LOT warmer that I'm used to, the right leg hates it. I've put up with it in the past, but this is too far. Haven't made any changes, I'm thinking intake seals. Any other ideas? Thanks everyone

My Litmus test for the Ignition Timing needing adjustment is a hot right leg.

Intake seals would be a good check. Could be running a lot leaner and therefore hotter. Maybe check the color of the spark plugs too.

I heard running no ethanol makes your bike run considerably cooler aswell I'm not sure as I've never actually tempature tested it although I will probably this week on my brothers gsxr 600

Thx to Alfau, moving back a couple of marks did help with the temp. Tll130 I ran the wrong gas thru a tank ago, and am hoping none was left behind, but . . . Oh well. Before the timing change I could feel a small loss of power in the butt dyno, and I can't lift the front wheel in 1st anymore. I'll try to drain the tank this week. Thx again everyone
