The last time, recently, I managed to get my oil temp to a 100 C was on a very twisty uphill mountain road in third gear for about 15-20 miles, constantly on and off the throttle and braking hard into the corners. Following a sport bike who for some reason kept dragging his knee in the corners... The weather was in the 90's, there was noticable wheel spin on occasion, the scenery was spectacular (or so I'm told, I was a little to busy to notice).

Disclaimer:
Of course I strictly adhered to all posted speed limits at all times and would never zoom up a twisty canyon road chasing a motorcycle. In other breaking news, I have a bridge for sale...
