      My Arrow exhaust is dangerously close to the tank, according to my measurements around 4 mm. Will this be a problem?

        I mean my DEP was close, but not that close.

            Doesn't look too bad, is it close is it?

                  Line the underside of your tank with heatproof asbestos or similar exhaust wrap if your worried, I done this to my water expansion tank as it touched my silencer, but really I wouldn't worry.

                    Asbestos! You are kidding! Buy some self adhesive heat reflecting foil readily available on ebay, used it on new side panels, easy to do.

                        In true blue Peter fashion here is one I prepared earlier. Would avoid anything containing any asbestos like the plague, not sure if modern exhaust wrap contains it any more, more likely to contain glass fibres now. 0_1520374804511_20180112_133738-1024x576.jpg 0_1520374817151_20180112_140037-1024x576.jpg

                          @irongamer727 I did the same mod as @oldman suggested. I used this stuff from ebay;

                          https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Fairing-Panel-Engine-Exhaust-HEAT-SHIELD-Track-Day-Bike-Race-Bike-Self-Adhesive-/131062781562?hash=item1e83f3567a

                          It was top quality, super easy to use and worked really well too !!! 😉

                          SEDUCED BY THE DARK SIDE!!!
