Definitely. In fact I was warned about that issue when I bought it. The
issue is not about the bike overheating. It is about my right leg needing
mint jelly after a long ride.
The bike is hot as hell on the right side. The ceramic coated headers are
supposed to reduce the heat coming off the stock headers by 175 degrees(f).

Although, I have yet to figure out how much it would help, as the heat
problem is in front of that device.

Get the airflow cover kit, ceramic coat your exhaust, and get a heat
barrier to fit under your seat from 'special ops'

Your heat problems will be drastically reduced.

I *was* going to say "I'm not even going to touch that one." But I
think it goes without saying that there's NO WAY IN HELL I'm going to
touch that...
Of course, I did just say it, didn't I?
