Motorcycle engine running very hot?
I own a Honda cb125f which I purchased new in Feb 2017. A few days ago I noticed while on the bike I void feel the heat from the engine through my boots and on my leg, when I got home I checked it and could feel the heat with my hand a good 6/7inches away from the engine, and could only manage about half a second touching the engine itself.
Conditions that day were mild but a high chilly wind, and had riden the bike about 8miles and was stuck in traffic for only a few minutes. Since then It seems the engine gets hot very quick even on small journeys. I use my bike for work and travel about 2.5miles. Even the exhaust doesn't get anywhere near as hot as the engine.
Was woudnering what be causing this? The bike didn't feel smooth when running, almost like something is rough inside the engine (if that makes sense) it's odd as only have a service a couple of weeks ago
