I had the original restrictive pipes on my Classic Roadster painted vht black with
the headers wrapped. The side pipes were very hot - if you touched them you
were burned. I got Don's unrestricted pipes on, then got a deal for ceramic
coating the headers and side pipes and tried that. There was no rust on the headers after nine years, but did not wrap the coated ones. Long story short
regarding heat - made a big difference in my case. Liked the extra power from
the unrestricted pipes too! No temperature readings, but no more burns and a
much cooler ride in the summer.
