Rider leg exhaust heat

Leather Chaps? - no surprise at all. Leather is a superb insulator.
Rode today in my heavy (albeit perforated) leather Vanson Sportsrider Pants. Exhaust/Radiator Heat? - what heat?

Pants have ruddy useless pockets - which is why I keep forgetting to use them.
 
When I first started riding I found the heat and issue. Then I discovered that I do not have to hug the tank. Just opening up your legs a little will help. Highway pegs are nice too.
