It just does not have enough cooling ability on an 85 degree humid spring/summer day while running in low gear (somewhat high rpm) yet moving slow thru the air.

Thanks for the tip though, it sounds like you might have been a dirtbike racer also once upon a time.
I learned how to ride bikes while in the Air Force in Japan, my first new bike was a 1968 Suzuki TS250 dual purpose bike. But, no, I never raced them.

My only connection with competition motorcycles was as a volunteer trackside medic (I'm a registered nurse) for the AMA amateurs, and a few pro events such as US Superbike and World Superbike races at Laguna Seca and what used to be known as Sears Point Raceway.
