    Been high 30's here for a few weeks now, and if I have one criticism about the TR, it's the heat from the high pipe and the radiator fan not helping.
    Anyone looked into a GS low pipe fitting the Terra?

    Also on the same topic, noticed the bike does run a bit rough in high temps.

    Was hoping someone would offer some practical advice. Can't always go faster. :-(

    Agree that it gets hot around the engine left side of the engine. Down side of living in a city which has temperate climate.

    I went the ceramic coating route of the exhaust. Hoped for a slightly cooler ride and I do not like it's proximity to the fuel tank.

    Seems to be not as hot but still have to contend with the heat off the radiator which is pleasant during winter but not so much so when the temperature is over 30 C.

    Can't really comment on the BMW pipe except it does not look it will exit at the back of the motor in the right place.

    You could try an exhaust fabricator for advice.
