It's just running too lean for some reason.
I'm thinking a carb rebuild may be in order.
If you want to check the valve clearences they are:
.003-.005 for the Intake
.005-.007 for the Exhaust
Check them with the piston 1/4" past top dead center on the compression stroke.

How does it run other than the overheated exhaust?
Usually that means it's running too lean. Is the air filter clean?
