Dear Colleagues,


Since I bought my KLX250s I have been so curious why the motor irradiates so many heat to my right leg, specially when I run in low RPMs. Are you experiencing something similar?, can you feel the motor heat in you legs? is the main frame warm due to the motor heat?.


Thanks a lot guys in advance for your inputs.

If you inspect that area, you will find the exhaust pipe is on the right side of the cylinder as it passes to the rear. It is a motor, it is running, it is going to get hot. It will feel really hot in the summer.

Open the hood on your car and stick your arm down in there... pretty hot, right? Same thing internal combustion engines radiate off a lot of heat.
