It's usually (last couple of weeks) over 110° out when I'm riding home in traffic (stop light to stop light), and I've never hit 220°. I'd freak out if it got up to 248°. that's hot. In the mornings it's 90+ out, and my temp runs in the low 190's.
I'd make sure your fan is working. If it's getting that hot, the fan should be running when you shut the bike off.
my .02 cents.
