    GS650G rear diff getting hot.....

    How hot is too hot? My rear end housing is full of oil to the fill hole when on the centerstand but it seems like the housing gets awful hot after a ride.

        Mine gets pretty warm to touch (on warm day after couple hours of riding) - I'd guesstimate like hot water about 125 degrees.
