Barely have 300 miles on it and it seems like it's running super hot everytime I take it out. The gas tank is even hot on my thighs. Anyone else's bike doing this? It's 90° outside so it's hot but still I don't think the bike should be pushing 180° - 195° right? Or am I wrong? Help me out fam

180-195 is normal. It will even get to 215 when it's sitting in traffic.

Mine runs at 176-180 on cool days with no traffic. As soon as I sit idling, the temp rises quickly. The fans do kick in somewhere in the 220's IIRC. Not to worry. Enjoy your new bike!

Welcome to the forum @Moses! I'm not too familiar with Ducatis do they tend to run really hot?

 

[Moses]

I can't speak for all of them but I do know that the Panigale V4S becomes unbearably hot on warm days

 

[Moses]

most people say it's an inherent trait with Ducatis but i can't say for sure about the ones I don't know about hehe

It's definitely a Panigale thing. My 899 is extremely hot.

Don't even feel the heat on my R7!

Every Ducati Ive ever owned is hot! like sitting on an oven hot. I rode my r7 for the first time today and noticed some heat around the gas tank but it was welcomed, it was around 50* outside, I needed some heat. I could've probably rode in a man thong on my old duc

Bike running hot, ride faster. Seriously, it needs a lot of airflow. This has been the case for a while with Yamahas, the motors put out a lot of heat. Slow moving, in traffic, it can get quite warm.

Can confirm on the Ducatis - 899 Panigales and 821 / 1200 Monsters run super hot. LOL
Stop and go traffic = not fun.🥵
