I'm going to play with some configurations of the Rings and see what works best for me.

Like I said, just don't use them if u have a concern. And if these foam rings scare u, u better get the polyfill u have been using out in the non flammable metal dumpster ASAP.
I would not carry anything flammable in your saddlebags either!!!!!!

Just sayin.

With the NVXs and 4180 I still had FM, but out on the edge of the city limits it was a bit weaker than without.
