Just an observation - a positive one. 
My old bike would warm up quickly, but would also get hot rather quickly. It was an inline 4 MaximX.
I was practicing MSF stuff in an empty parking lot yesterday for about 10 minutes, and noticed that my temperature gauge hadn't really moved. I was grateful because my old bike would get hot rather quickly doing that kind of stuff.
The only downside is that the bike seems to take forever to warm up in the morning compared to my old bike. Luckily, I can plan for this one and start the bike sooner. I thought this was interesting, because I would expect it to be the opposite since this bike has a smaller block, and more power/cc. Maybe the cooling system on the Ex500 is oversized.
