Not a big fan of the chrome headers on the R9T.

Anybody here ever used heat wrap on boxer engine headers?

Thermo-Tec : Exhaust Insulating Header Wrap (Graphite Black)

Thought it might look neat with the classic style of the bike and all... :rolleyes:

I don't see any downsides to heat wrap, some say looks, but I love how it looks, add's some aggressiveness that some bikes need.

IMO it will be worth it to get some high heat paint on the exhaust, I just love how a black exhaust looks. Heat wrap can still look good to me if done right

thats part of why i love it.
it serves a real purpose, looks good if done right and at times, vintage.
