Default what should oil temp be reading?

I'm usually close to 250.. not exactly.. but pretty close while driving around 80-85.. Is that normal? or should it be a lot cooler?

Default

From memory, I think 240-250 is about right...

Default It really depends on the outside temperature and speed

Today i was driving for an hour in mid 30s temp., and it never went over 200F. Cruising around 75-80 in the 50s, almost never goes above 225F. Have yet to try it in the summer (as this will be my first one with the ar).
