Have you checked you haven't left your bike drier on under the seat?
It will not be the fuelling. Look at what you have done to the bike - if a standard bike doesn't blow heat up yet one with a Mudsling does; ipso facto Mudsling! I would guess that the Mudsling traps heat in front of it and as the speed rises, blows the heat up towards your legs. Nice in the winter, pain in the summer.
I have a mudsling on my non adventure LC, and haven't had this problem.
You don't have a cat convertor neither do I, I don't have this issue either, draw your own conclusion

I don't have a cat either, I do have a mudlsing and I don't have this problem. Case proven I would say m'lud
I've got the Akro so I'm wondering if that adds to the issue or not. Might try the stock end can for a day or two as I collected bike with Akro fitted.

Good point. I'm interested to hear what BMW say to Jon today.
Bad fuelling will cause the cat to run excessively hotter, missfires (generally unnoticeable)...
Air leaks from manifold joint gaskets..
Possible to compare using temperature indicator sticks or labels..
Worth considering if it's down to only a few GSA WC, can't say I've noticed anything on my GS WC
Good luck to the super tech diagnosing that one tho..

Now you've got a bike dryer you can ditch the mudsling and just wash the bike more often!
Assuming of course you haven't already broken your dryer by shooting gerbils out of it
And where Jon, are you in this country sitting at 80mph to cause this of heat problem?
Ha ha
Matt at NOG hasnt had anyone mention this - until now...
....interesting
I have just been putting it down to heat coming off the end can not being cooled down by the flowing air as the temperatures have risen over summer.
For me it is noticeable but not blisteringly hot.
I've recently taken the mudsling off my bike and will see if I notice any difference now
I've just done a 2.9k tour of Germany with a Mudsling fitted and didn't notice this problem? But I guess now it's in my mind it could become one?
