Temp gauge may be reading high.
I was always concerned with the temps. on my bike. Also a 998.
When I checked the operating temp with a Fluke brand meter my brother in law uses for HVAC work it read 15 degree F cooler than the bikes gauge. The fans are controlled by a different temp sensor than the one for the gauge and come on when they are supposed to. I have never had a problem with overheating. During the warm months I run watter wetter which also helps and is required by my track day org. Hope this helps. Ken.
