    Default exhaust heating the fuel

    Hi guys, I decided that it was about time that I confronted this issue. I decided to wrp the engine pipes with Lava wrap that I bought from Supercheap. Doing one pipe was relatively easy but the other was hiding in front of the fuel tank. I decided to take the tank out, this was very exciting as I had to pull half the bike to pieces. I need to follow the instructions fro the workshop manual and was able to achieve success. Now I can put my hand on the exhaust pipe wrap and very little heat. Result, fuel in the tank doesn't boil any more.

    Have a great day
