Charlie, I had very high oil temperatures in my C85 in the summer until I added the extra baffling - this really solved the problem. Then I added an El Reno oil filter and now I have trouble getting my oil warm enough except in the middle of summer.
The baffling is expensive and a pain to install but I would recommend it. A cheaper solution is to try the oil filter alone ($200 plus installation). This may be enough to get you temps down and it is better for your engine.

The engine has 80 hours since overhaul. I realize the temps are somewhat higher than usual this time of the year, but the oil temp is well over 220 degrees. Wonder if anyone else is experiencing higher temps or is their a fix without going to the new Skysport front cowl? The gauge is working properly??
