V85TT head pipe heat shields.
« on: September 03, 2025, 12:21:27 PM »
 Has anyone tried the carbon fiber heat shields on Ebay or Ali? Do you like them? My left one side fell off,I was already using large washers to hold them on.

That was my only issue in the 4 years I had my TT.  Cheap pot metal.  I did the washer trick and with a rubber grommet, it worked well enough.

Other than covering up the welded in catalytic converter I saw no need for them and just removed them. I think it looks better that way. To each there own.
