    Just put a new set of pipes on a sporty. Ran it over the weekend, no problem. Out last night, oil tank temp was approaching 250 deg. This is much hotter than normal. Any ideas? Am I running too lean now?

    Have you done anything with the engine timing?

    Did you re-jet after changing the pipes?
