Hello, can anyone tell me where to get insulation to protect my side case from the muffler melt?
My left side case has some considerable damage from muffler heat. I plastic welded the holes closed but I don't want this to happen again. What can I use for heat shield? There is already a thin, metallic sheet of heat shield in a recess at the center of the side that faces the muffler. I want to put a piece in front of it and behind it. My question is, where can I get that thin heat shield? Local hardware stores carry thick wall insulation or thin pipe insulation that has plastic air bubbles inside (like bubble wrap). I don't want to use either of those.
Thanks for any help!
