Default Discoloration on pants right leg

Any idea what is causing pants to discolor at lower right leg above ankle, is it the exhaust heat?, exhaust fumes where slip ons connect to header pipe?. I don't feel the heat myself, and I am no diabetic.

Only three possibilities:

1. exhaust heat
2. you pissed your pants and that is where the **** turns to steam on the hot pipes
3. you unknowingly hit a chipmunk and he pissed on your leg



I'm guessing #1

Oil. Road grime. Blood. Dead animals. Etc. All are possible and likely.

Default Pants leg

Could be oil coming out of the breather if you've been running it hard. If not, probably the fabric and the heat.

i ride in dockers all the time (yes wrinkle free) never had issues with heat and they are a polyester blend... love them... slid across the road at 20mph in them and they did not even rip! now i wear them all the time... great protection

I know I can be a little dense, but what does diabetes have to do with this?
