Default Thunderheader burnt pants

So I just took my newly installed thunderheader out for a long ride today. My jeans flapping in the wind must have stuck to the pipe, and melted the material onto the pipe. Anyone have any tips on how to get it off without scratching the paint?

I've heard oven cleaner, but I'd google that before I sprayed it on to make sure it's kosher

I don't know about black pipes but I burnt a pair of Gore-Tex pants on my chrome Samsons, I sprayed it with WD 40 and let it soak for a while then just wiped it off.
