    I doubt if it is anywhere near operating temp. More like 20 miles I should think.

    Think Andy is referring to the temp. gauge which shows mid-scale after about 2 mls in town.
    Oil take a while longer but I'd expect much less than 20 mls.

    They do warm up quickly but could do with an oil temp gauge

    I would have thought that the oil warms up just as quick. (Just a guess)
