Much...Tony, thanks. I was looking at thermal wrap to keep the heat away from my leg. Ceramic coating better?
The only good reason to use exhaust wrap on your header pipes is to ruin them (and your header gaskets) in short order.
Yes, I agree with Tony - it's much better.Tony, thanks. I was looking at thermal wrap to keep the heat away from my leg. Ceramic coating better?
Removing the CAT (without remapping) will actually RAISE exhaust (and head) temps - due to leaning the bike out.I wrapped the exhaust just because I wanted the look.
The biggest source of heat I suppose is the catalytic converter.
Removing it will probably reduce the heat
significantly. Will see when I get that new slip-on next week.
Oh, that's right. But at least I get rid of the heat from the cat when standing at a red light. That's really the big issue I think. Feet gets really hot!Removing the CAT (without remapping) will actually RAISE exhaust (and head) temps - due to leaning the bike out.
Looks perfect!i love the messy look of it, and reduce heat!!! was a lot of fun installing the wrap, i didn't know anything about fiberglass! now i do!!View attachment 3242 View attachment 3243
Thank youI went for the 2 rolls kit. You will have spare wrap. Dealer did the exhaust take down, wrap and spray paint.
