Default Moto gp stealth exhaust heat

Ok so yesterday i put a moto gp exhaust on my f4i and everything seems to run fine, other than it sounding hella friken loud and waking everyone up on my block lol... but as i rode for the first 10 miles or so it got way hotter than usual. i'm guessing this is due to the lack of back pressure from what i'm reading in all the other threads. but my questions is how hot it too hot first of all. and how important is having a decent amount of back pressure? i also was told that there is a 100 mile break in for it too... i'll try and post up some pics so everyone can see. i understand the potential problem with burning up the valves i think...

Theres plenty in my profile, I'll be happy to answer questions. You do have to trim your fairing to get it to fit.
