----- ORIGINAL MESSAGE FOLLOWS ----- Gentlemen, I have a 1928 Deluxe. It has been rebuilt using new Ross pistons, new valve guides, new valves, a hot rebuilt Simms mag and a Zenith carb with the new idle mixture adjuster. The timing is correct,valve adjustments are right on. Idle mix is set according to Zenith instructions. I pressure tested each cylinder as I installed the valve plugs, with no leaks. The bike starts easily, idles smoothly and runs well going down the road. My problem is that it runs hot. After a quick 5 mile ride, the temp measured at the center bolt hole varies from 360 F to 411 F taken with an infrared thermometer. I welcome your advice. |
