back to back writtings... higher compression produces no more heat.. Then I read higher compression produces more heat.

I know this much.. Harley Davidsons can get by with air cooling because they have low compression. (except thier higher compression VRod).

I have two Honda Motorcycles that are water cooled. One with an 11-1 compression ratio and I have read they NEED to be water cooled due to the high compression.

At least now thru all these threads I believe I understand octane better. But holy conflicting facts!
