Default Rear Sets

Anyone else on the 1k (have an '07) get some excess heat on the front rear sets? At times I feel like a mini indian is going to town. Have the heat sheild and everything else. Granted in AZ but damn...... happens about once a week when riding, fan can kick on a couple times while street riding, and nothing for some time, but randomly I'll catch myself getting ready to ride through an apartment complex with sprinklers on...

Alright, good to know. Was shocked at the heat it produced at times. Never had a Honda before, just GSXR's but holy hell. I thought AZ was hot, but after my shoes get scorced and foot is on fire, AZ isn't hot...

I don't have that problem with my '06 (factory exhaust). Although the '06 didn't come with
the "mini indian" option. I like that feature. Especially if he "goes to town" for you.....
