[QUOTE="Chiefblueman, post: 1257238, member: 29249"] Removing the PAIR system and its plumbing will make all things under the "hood" much easier, including installation of heat shielding. This will require the installation of block off plates such as the awesome units sold by Wynn Pro on this site. I don't have experience with the gen2 heat shield but have done the Cromeit mods on both sides and installed a heat blanket over top of the engine. IMHO, the most effective thing I did was to make sure to seal any air pathways around the seat, sides and back, and insulate the tank. I also have Holeshot headers that have no cats. I can ride in 100 deg heat comfortably (to me) unless I'm stopped and idling. Remember, there's a 145hp heat generator down there, you're gonna feel it. The best way to search this site is to use Google. Ex: Gen 1 heat shield site:fjrforum.com. Oh yeah, if you're intolerant of typical forum shit this might not be the place for you. Getting po'd here is like chumming shark infested waters. This is the best forum around, the level of FJR info is astounding. Just be patient. A fondness for sheep is a plus [IMG]https://www.fjrforum.com/forum//public/style_emoticons/default/love.gif[/IMG] [/QUOTE]
