I like the head shield. I just used some good titanium DEI header wrap with a heavy overlap from flange to just a few inches before the muffler wrapped back to front. Still holding up after a full season of riding, and it made a huge difference on radiant heat. Not only radiant heat and reduced burn chance on my person, but the surrounding parts of the bike as well.

I revised the bracket so I could mount the original exhaust plastic shield.

Thank you JerryHawk250. I don't think I would have ever done this until you mentioned the price of the pipe. It noticeably gave my bike a quicker response to some extra torque. Its like taking the bottle cap off the beer bottle and letting her guzzle out!

Ha! they cant see what's under the hood until I let her rip! It is a bike for some custom work at home. I like that about it.

So you noticed a big improvement over the gutted stock exhaust? I would like to get one myself but just can't afford getting one right now. But glad I was able to help others save a few buck. I like how you reused the stock muffler shield. Thanks for sharing the idea. That's what I was planning on doing and you just saved me a whole lot of brain storming lol.
