Is this due to the front mudguard which I have been told is designed to direct more airflow to the centre cylinder. :smt102

 that is very true :thumright:  so if you fit another type of mudguard,it can upset the air flow,causing the middle cyl. to over heat

I have a non standard plastic mudguard fitted to my bike. Could I make some sort of deflector to give me the desired airflow.

i've heard its best to covert triples to a ramair system like the suzukis, then no more drama

If I put some tape across the top of my cylinder heads would I get the Ram Air effect ?? :smt102

I've seen some silver duck tape in Halfords that should do the trick. :thumright:
