Default Heat wrap help finding a product///show me your heat wrap

I am looking for this exhaust wrap in the picture I attached... the closest thing I could find was DEI Titanium.. feel free to post a picture of your bike. I am looking for something as close as I can to the picture I attached.
ANY help would be greatly appreciated... its the last step before I slap cams, and new 2-1 on my crossbones!
Thank you all!!

That is the DEI Titanium wrap. It appears to be the 2" variety.

Yep, that definitely looks like the DEI Pipe Rotting Wrap

I sure love the way it looks, for a while...but damn. It is murder on a set of pipes.

Even the titanium wrap?
my bike is stored in a climate controlled garage too... I bought a new set of stainless pipes but no heat shields, but I don’t want to ruin them either

I like the look of wraps too. Put them on my sporty and had no trouble but I have read wraps wreck your pipes. I believe the pipes run hotter and the extra heat wrecks the pipes.

Yeah, it's not the climate so much as the heat. There are some good threads in the Dyna section, as I recall. Here is some reading:

Heat wrap? Do they still make that crap? I thought it went out of fad 20 years ago.

None currently, but when I played with it, for comfort, I wrapped and secured it, then soaked it with spray can engine paint, either clear or black. Keeps the fuzziness away for a while.

Not a fad when your exhaust doesn't come with heat shields and you ride it frequently
