Wonder if anyone can help. I need some of that exhaust wrap stuff (the kind they wrap round downpipes on race bikes to keep the temperature down) to cover a joint on my rear exhaust as it is blowing into my rear shock reservoir which is obviously not good as it will overheat the shock !
Over the winter I will get the joint to seal properly so this is just a quick fix..
I only need abut 6 inches (ooerr missus!) and dont really want to buy a full roll as its mega bucks !!!
Hope somone can help..
Cheers

You have a U2U.
Nat, Got some in the garage you can have for nothing. If you are coming on Sun I can bring it along, or even Popham next week.

Got a lock wire kit from Moto Rapido when they fitted some wrap to my exhaust.
It was around a tenner, give or take a few quid, Motrax I think.
If anyone has any left over I'd appreciate some as well - I thik the heat off my 800ss is getting to the Ohlins shock.
TVM :D
To secure I just used jubilee clips :) twpd, still have some but I'm based in Oxfordshire.
