Rider leg exhaust heat

Sounds lean to me.

Do a search for CES exhaust or Carpenter exhaust... you think your leg is hot now....

One thing I noticed, and don't know if it applies to you, is when I installed RAMAir, removing much of the air plumbing including the air funnel under the seat, I noticed an immediate heat increase from warm air over the engine flowing under the seat.

Otherwise, after having melted holes in my mesh pants from touching the down pipe, @mully95 showed me how to install a heat shield that took care of that problem.

So, ATGATT helps.

Another solution that's rarely mentioned here is to have your right leg amputated

And enjoy the massive savings in rear brake pads

I did similar when my Cordura pants touched the pipe. Self Adhesive Aluminium coated Fibreglass Aeroplane bulkhead film - riveted down the corners. Honestly it looks like crap - but works. You show me yours and I'll show you mine

Well not if you get a peg-leg.

If you get stuck in traffic on a 90 degree day, nothing's gonna save the right leg from roasting.

Wood will catch on fire and metal will get even hotter and burn the stump.... hmmm back to the drawing board

Like others have stated, it is not because of the TORs.
