Default how hot is "Hot"?

Reaper, 130 degree tap water is too hot for most people, and at 150 degrees you start to get skin damage. If you can't keep your hand on it for more than 2-3 seconds I'd say that is pretty normal. The crankcase is probably close to 160+ degrees after the engine warms up, and the cylinder at 180-220 depending on a number of factors.
