[Ducati] 916/996/998 underseat heat

[Tony Pagliaroli]

OK - so now you guys have me worried.  Perhaps I have a problem larger
than just radiant heat.  I don't hear any popping so I'm pretty sure
it's not too lean.  No water in the oil, so it's probably not a head
gasket.

What's the typical running temp (indicated) on your 996's?
