Might be a bit late but I had a word with Ross and he effectively said no, in that all it will do is worry you and you can't do anything about it.
He said the cure was this to buy a different temperature rated spark plug , the standard NGK sparkplug is an 8 , he gave me a 9 spark plug for any super hot sections I have to do , and also a 7 for when it gets really cold.
He said it is a marketting gimmick in that most people these days having lived with watercooled bikes are used to seeing the temp guage on them. And that he has ridden across the Sahara on a Suzi goose and never managed to overheat it, he just changed the plug more often and checked the oil twice a day.
