OK Morning start after setting all Night , just for Reference I have 4 Markers Up on Temp Gauge which is Honda's Normal after
7 miles and 1 Min. of slow driving to get out to main road . .

Oil isn't Warmed all the Way nor is Transmission , so by Time I get 10-11 Miles I'd say Motor Oil is Good , but Not Trans Temp
It takes another 5 miles and another 5 Min. after the First 11 Min. to Fully Warm Up

Stat is Controlling temp after First 8 Minutes & 7.5 miles . .

Check and Make sure Your Engine bay - Rubber Seal is in Place @ Back Engine Bay where the Hood Hinges Down to Meet it . .

Also have You just been taking it super easy on Your Sport , or have You Put it through It's Paces and In Mountains to Fully Break motor in . .

I believe I had over 7000 miles before it felt Fully Seated and " Stopped Using Oil "

I had several Mountain Trips in Very Hot Weather . .
