Hi all Panigale owners, Regarding the heat problem. I recommend buying a product from Zircotec which is a flexible ceramic stick on sheet which stops 77% of heat transfer. I did under my seat, made a panel also and stuck it on the underside of the seat rails just above the exhaust guard, removed the exhaust guard then wrapped the pipes, and stuck this material around the electronic rear susp solenoids back side only. what a difference. By the way I live in Arizona where summer heat is very high. Albert |

Where'd you grab yours? Would be smart to line the subframe fairings and seat bottom.

I can post pics after I get home. One reason for my modifications are simply this, electronics should be kept cool and there are electronics under the seat, plus the S and tri has the fancy electronic shock which should be kept cool. Hard start has been reported in some cases but so far with my modifications I have had no hot start issues.

By the way the underside of my seat is lined with Zircotec flex11 foil and the seat stays much cooler and more pleasant to ride. The material is not cheap but well worth every penny. I bought the 18 X 22 sheet.

By the way I do not work for Zircotec or do I get paid to promote their product. I have posted this info as in Arizona especially in town the heat was almost unbearable. So after a long search for products to help with this heat problem I found this product and purchased some. So not only did I exhaust wrap my under seat pipe I also used this product and between those two product uses it has made life in the seat more pleasant.

Sorry I did not post pics yet as I have been in Europe for a while and will be back in the USA, Tucson in Sept and will post them then. However I did prior to leaving the USA try to post but could not figure out how. Could someone please send me instructions on what to do. Albert |
