Before I installed the hotcams, I ran my FCI. Stock cams with the FCI ran fine. I broke in the hotcams by keeping a high idle for about 15mins until the motor bogged down, then the temp light went on. After I let off the throttle, the light went away then seemed to run fine. I then ride it lightly for 15 minutes and didn't have problems. Hotcams recommends 30 min break in on non synthetic oil, which I did. I changed the oil to full synthetics with a new filter. Went for a ride later and when I would pin the throttle, the same problem would come up. The motor would bog down, and the temp light would come on. It would go off then ride fine as long as I took it easy. One time of backfired pretty loud. So, does anyone know what the problem is? Is my air fuel mixture running wrong? Is it running too lean? It wouldn't backfire as I let off the throttle during the normal use. As long as I didn't pin it, the issue wouldn't arise. Can someone help?

Your water temp sensor might be going bad & need replacing...

Check for DFI error codes...

It might be you are really running hot or almost overheating that is why it lights up.

Check for dfi codes as DD said but also make sure your fan is running maybe you really are too hot. A lean running engine runs very hot so pull your spark plug and check its color. If its lean check that the TPS is adjusted properly. What fuel controller are you using?

Could you have pinched a wire while reassembling everything? It is strange you were having no problems until it was taken apart for the cams. Don't get me wrong it can happen but not often.
