I guess the question needs some clarification as to why you ask? You are concerned with the heat of the exhaust itself. Are you getting some negative affects from it like tail light getting melted or such? Removed heatshields? Just curious. I have no idea how to reduce the heat of the exhaust. As long as the pipe extends far enough behind the light and you are not melting parts because of your heatshields being removed, is it a problem?

A precaution for what? Why do you think it is a problem. Never heard of anyone concerned about the temp of the actual exhaust fumes. If they aren't damaging anything and if your engine is runnning properly, what is the problem? More clarification is needed as to why you are concerned with this.

I just asked a question.The answerwould be the same regardless if you know why I asking or not.But here goes. Just a precaution on not melting the taillight or nose cone of the jardine. I had to modify the bracket so the cone is slightly closer to the tail section an wanted to make sure it wasnt goin to melt anything. That and why not want to cool your over all bike down. Ima try the engine ice deal, but was asking on here to see if anyone else had clues.

Engine Ice works well I have it in mine. If you have your stock exhaust or slip-on you can wrap your factory headers in ceramic to keep the exhaust heat off your radiator and engine. This also keeps the exhaust hot and moving faster and it will exit out the bike quicker. The stock headers are thick enough to with stand the heat from wrapping but aftermarket pipes are a lot thinner than stock and there for you can't wrap them. You can also put heat tape on your undertail if your concerned about heat.

bboi:

If you wrap any part of the exhaust that will only make your exhaust gas hotter.A heat shield would be your best bet.
