Default Need side pipe protection suggestions

My handicapped daughter is 4'11" and doesn't understand that the side pipes are hot. I was wondering if there's a blanket or something I could drape out over the pipes that wouldn't melt or burn up. I just don't want her to get burnt getting out. Getting in is usually while cold.

I have an old replica . I installed the Stainless perforated muffler guards from FINISHLINE. The guards were a problem getting some insulation between the muffler and the clamping system. Finally found fire resistant silicone. Side pipes get hot and I didn't want the guards to bugger up the ceramic coated side pipes. I got burned back in 1997 when visiting Daryl Holiday, and knew better and still got bit.

I have a 110% cotton bath mat which works well. Doesn't burn/melt and leaves no mark on the pipes.

Contact Kathy Lloyd. She makes sidepipe protectors with an embroidered Cobra from welding blankets. Very nicely done. kathyglloyd@yahoo.com
