Paula, you need to understand that I don't know how this can happen. I understand that you scorched your jeans, but I don't understand how. Not by just riding normally (the same as I do)
Jetting will not appreciably change engine temperature to the point that
you can not scorch your jeans, because you still have internal combustion going on regardless.
So, what is different, missing, wrong, or changed on your bike? Do you have an exhaust leak, a missing heat shield, a different muffler or head pipe?....That is what I am saying.
Anyone else with any ideas?
