Moderator Goff Posted May 3, 2008 Moderator Share Posted May 3, 2008 I've got a Leo Vince Silvertail exhaust on my bike which sounds fabulous - BUT - i keep burning my leg on the bloody pipes! The system does not come with any heat shields and althought i have wrapped it in that heat wrap stuff - im on my 2nd pair of waterproof trouser due to the pipes melting them! I can find universal heat shields on the web but the problem is with the first pipe that goes in between the engine and panel - and its curved! (See pic - taken before they were wrapped) The ones on the net are all straight. Anyone got any ideas? or is anyone any good at making this sort of thing? I'll pay whatever it costs to save me keep having to replace my waterproofs!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Moderator Goff Posted May 3, 2008 Author Moderator Share Posted May 3, 2008 Sad problem but nice pipes. Remove leg and think of England! lol i keep trying to remember the pipes are there but even so im only short so i can only bend my leg out a little bit - which is rubbish when i have my waterproofs on cos they are quite thick! The pipes sound fabulous - shame they turned gold though - but hopefully im having that sorted - i just need this little problem sorting! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
