Just realized why my motor was running so hot the first time out,

Yes it was party due to being a bit overgeared to start with, but I was changing out the pinion and spur for a better ratio and I realized how loose my slipper was set from the factory.

Make sure to tighten it all the way down and then let it out about 1/2 a turn. The stock setting was almost a full turn out and way to loose - was wondering why I wasn't able to pull any wheelies during the first run.
