    Just seeing if others have experienced this and what was the solution.

    I installed a Leo Vince Pipe last year with the loud core and spark arrestor screen on my 2008 TE-610. I also removed the spacer (extender) piece from the trun signal stalk to move them in closer. Now the dang turn signal melted.

    I was very suprised because the Leo Vince pipe was shorter that the stock pipe and I never would guess this would happen.

    Thoughts?

    Throw some heat barrier tape on the back of the signals should repel the gases.
