Default Longer Heat shields for thunderheader on 2012???
My thunderheader on my 2012 wideglide has heatshields, but the front one does not cover the pipe down where my heal is, so I keep melting the side of my boot...

It there a heat shield that will fit that will cover the pipe more, and wrap down a little farther down the pipe?

Anyone else having this problem???


Thanks...Kevin

Maybe that's'not an answer you want to hear but ever thought about making one yourself or go to a place where they can make a custome one ?
