Total Est. Time: 7 hours, 5 minutes
Total Est. Distance: 430.88 miles
is distance from me to EKIII

drinks on me , Its payday!
Question:
I started up the bike today and put hand it front of exhaust. The bottom
(front cylinder)felt strong and warmed quickly. the top pipe felt much
weaker and stayed cool for more than 2-3 minutes. Is this normal? should I
be concerned?
