Good luck finding a reasonably priced heat shield. I looked and looked and found nothing. Tried to get my local welder to make me one but completed cost was very close to $200. Way too much, so I went to Walmart and bought a $5 soccer shin protector to wear under my jean's leg. It with ceramic coating works pretty good. I have a 34" inseam and never allow my jeans to touch the exhaust. Normally ride with my knee approximately 2-4" from the #3 primary pipe. The system does get hot under your thigh when in traffic but once moving, it cools off to a comfortable heat level. Wrapping would probably keep the heat in the pipe but is ugly and maybe harmful due to the wrap trapping too much heat and moisture? I am very pleased with my setup. If you need more protection, I would recommend an equestrian leather riding chap on the outside of your jeans.
