Spyders catching of FIRE

[Warlock]

This has been a subject here and wondering if anyone has heard a cause or possible BRP recalls on this?
Anyway while I had my wife's side cover off on the throttle side I could see where the heat shield rubbs the tubing by the air breather. So for some added protection I took some electrical rubber tape and wrapped the tube with it. Just wondering if the rubbing on the tube could cause a static charge or spark? Just another per-caution.

Nope

This topic has been through the ringer. As someone said before, "When you mix heat and gasoline eventually there will be a fire." I have seen cars burned up and motorcycles burned up, I even saw a Public Transportaion bus with flames shooting out the back while the passengers and driver were oblivious.

Rest assured that if Spyders were bursting into flames all the time we would hear about it.
