Default Bad Boy Buggy Motor Heat

What is too hot on a 48v system?

I ran my Bad Boy today since it had not been exercised for a while. I ran it about 5 miles up and down some pretty good hills. All gravel and grass.
Front motor was 162 degrees and rear was 130 degrees after I was done. Controllers were not bad at all at 90 and 95 degrees.
Is this OK or am I getting close to ruining something?
Thanks

Class H magnet wire is rated to 180C or 356F so your good to go, assuming your motors have class H wire.

How do I know if I have Class H magnet wires? Sorry for my ignorance here.
It has stock Bad Boy Buggy motors.
I just don't want to ruin anything if I can help it.

There should be a name plate on the motor housing. It may or may not tell you the wire rating.
