Yamaha R6 heat problem?

Can someone tell me thecorrect temperature for a R6 (2000) when fully warmed up. mine is going over 100 degrees. And seat stars to get hot. Is this normal. and if not what can i do.

cooling system is under pressure raising the boiling point to well over 100c,depending on rateing of cap could be as high as 114c.you would probably find the thermostat is rated to open at 98c,so your temp is within specs.flushing the cooling system may improve it,or renewing stat may drop it a little.remember that guages arent allways accurate.
