Default Heat Shield Question

Does anyone make a rear head-pipe heat shield for true duals that actually covers the pipe at the cylinder so you don't see so much of it from the right side of the bike?

Excellent response...

RR -

Not sure what brand you have now or if you are wanting to get a whole new set, but I had the V&H Big Shot duals on mine and seem to remember the heat shield covering that rear head pipe pretty well. It tapers to a point (sort of) and wraps around so you can still get to the studs/nuts. I don't recall being able to see much of the actual pipe at the head.

my vance and hines big shot true duals covered up most of the headpipe. like 07rh said, the heatshield kind of tapered to a point just in front of the flange.

my wife has rineharts on hers. the heatshields there also cover up most of the headpipe.

what kind of pipes are you running?
