I second the above. Looks awesome! How&nbsp\\;well does it provide&nbsp\\;heat protection, or can you tell?

Default RE: Got my pipes back!

Thanks guys, I wish I could comment on the pipe temps, but I haven't been able to ride due to the weather...I took it around the block yesterday after I put the pipes back on, but I was wearing shorts so I could feel a little heat.&nbsp\\;&nbsp\\; I'll let you guys know, but the best way would be with a heat sensor, because I doubt I could feel the difference.&nbsp\\; It supposedly reduces the exterior pipe temps by 30%.&nbsp\\; So if the exhaust temp is 1000 degrees&nbsp\\;the exterior&nbsp\\;pipe temp would be 700...still damn hot&nbsp\\;
