Consumer Description

THE EXCESSIVE HEAT PUT OFF BY THE HEADER PIPE DUE TO THE CATALYTIC CONVERTER IS CAUSING BLISTERS ON THE RIGHT DRIVERS THIGH(BACK OF LEG) AND PASSENGER'S RIGHT SHIN. THE HEAT PUT OFF BY THIS SET UP TO EXCESSIVE. WHETHER YOU ARE SITTING AT A RED LIGHT OR MOVING DOWN THE ROAD THE HEAT IS EXCESSIVE. HARLEY DAVIDSON HAS A PROBLEM AND IT IS COMMON ON 2010 TO PRESENT BIKES. I HAVE TAKEN PICTURES IF NEED TO VIEW OF THE INFLICTED BURNS. THIS BIKE IS STOCK. HOWEVER I AM GOING TO HAVE TO REPLACE THE HEADER PIPE WITH A NON CAT TYPE TO RELIEVE THE EXCESSIVE HEAT. I SHOULD NOT HAVE TO DO THIS. *TR
