140ish in normal riding conditions. It can go up to 170 in low snow.
Mine would run at 130ish pretty much all the time. At 110 the t-stat would open, drop the temp to about 100 and then when it was back to 110 the coolers were warm and it was ready to go. Sometimes that took a long time if it was cold out 
Above 150* is where you want to start paying attention to conditions and looking for patches of snow off trail to cool the sled back down.
My viper is 130 - 134 almost all the time...
