I used to ride bikes and would always remind my pillions about the exhaust when getting on the bike.

But the Cobra has a hot exhaust on either side and it's very low. The Cobra naturally draws attention to itself and yes, curious peeps (adults and kids alike) are drawn to it like moths to a flame and will want to peer inside. Yes, my kids know the stove and iron are hot and don't go near them...but at a car show it's impossible to hover around the Cobra warning everyone about the hot pipes.

Don't get me wrong....I would absolutely love live side pipes. They are super cool! I will investigate the shields if it really will stop people getting burned. Legally, we actually can run live side pipes here now. I just need to know how loud they really are because being a pilot, my hearing is important to me and I don't want to contribute to my own or my passenger's hearing loss!

Thanks for all the feedback.

Cheers all!

Sime

PS. At the very least, yes I will run dummy side pipes, although they'll probably be matt or satin black so I wont need faux shields.
