Still getting to grips with my new Defender 90 ( 1994 ), was out at the weekend, riding up and down the east coast of Fife, lovely day
However I did notice that it was starting to get quite warm under the middle seat. Took the seat bttomo out and the metal underneath was very warm to the touch, not painful, just hot.
Stayed this warm all day but not getting any hotter, and cooled down quite quickly when I got home and left it standing.
No burning smell or anything, temp gauge normal all day ( and functioning as it went up to about 1/4 gauge after the first hour on the road ).
So just checking this is normal, and if not what should I be doing about it
Cheers for any help
