My pipes are quiet enough at cruise that I can actually hear my engine now.

On it's way to you, but I can assure you that there's no issue with fuel.
Edited to add - I just looked over yesterday's data run, engine temperature spiked at 270 degrees for about 5 seconds, it averaged 250~ish. Fueling looked just fine as well.

No worries George. One thing to consider is that the latest sample was 10W-40, which I use for my winter oil. The last thousand miles or so, not only was it not cold out, it was downright hot.
But I've had viscosity issues since the first test with the 20W-50 as well. The bike has been professionally tuned by one of the best in the business (Dave Stoddart), and I've monitored it pretty consistently.

W no real info, oxidation thickening is my first thought
Love to see the reports, an FTIR would be really cool. If you happened to have a small amount retained I would run a RULER for you. +_+_+_+_+_ This isn't the Droid you are looking for
