Yes I'm sure this has been asked, so I apologize but I spent the better part of yesterday searching through old topics and couldn't find anything. So here goes:
I have a 2005 limited, stock but I've added the chrome (looking) screens to the ducts and a roaringtoyz 4-2-1 full exhaust. Just sitting on the bike it is HOT, heat is emitting from behind the plastic (of course). Here in Arkansas it's not that hot (yet), so I can't imagine it is supposed to be this hot. The engine temp is not high, or hot, just there is so much heat coming off the thing it's tough to ride longer distances.
The question is: what are some options to make it cooler? Exhaust wrap? Remove the chrome (looking) screens opening up the ducts? What else can I do?
Thanks!
Bill
