Heat Shield on '03 Breva

[Muzz]

Just thought I would throw this picture that my engineering friend came up with after my darling had ruined the heels on two sets of boots.




Made from fairly heavy grade perforated stainless. The cap screws that hold the shield on go through the perforated stainless underneath.

I have been asked before whether it is a genuine Guzzi accessory.

On a long trip I will sometimes use the rear footrests, so it saves my boots as well.

Me like! Nicely done...

On request. Couldn't find where I have hidden the photo in my 'pooter but found the original post Graham.

Very nice.  I can see the need for this.

Ah thanks Muzz.... I did struggle to find it when I first looked, not sure why.

Lovely job for the pillion pegs.  My problem was a little different it relate to the rider footpegs.  I took the first long-ish ride on the V1200 Sport into London on a charity run to Chelsea Barracks to see the Chelsea Pensioners. (Non-UK readers may want to look them up).  The ride was via some motorway miles and a bit of busy Sunday morning London traffic. 

On the way home my army paraboots, which I'm partial to riding in, fell apart.  The heels seemed to have suffered from heat, but the area around my heels is mostly engine / gearbox, so not exhaust heat.  Don't think I was resting my boots on any engine cases though.  Wondering if anyone else had a problem like this on the riders foot-pegs ?

Cheers Graham
