KV Motor options

[Savage 6768]

Hi ALL
I am looking for options on different kv motors for my CD XL flux. Currently I am running the standard tork motor with 11/50 gearing on 6s LiPo. My temps are around 70 degrees or 158 F at the motor and wondering if that is a little high. Esc temps are not high and haven't had any thermal shut downs. Would a lower kv motor help and be a bit kinder on my lipos ( gen ace 5000 50c )
Thanks in advance

I run mine with 2200 or less kv,no heat,even with a 20t pinion.I either use 2200kv Tork,or a BLX 185 system.158 degrees doesn't seem that bad,but I've never checked with a temp gun.
