1. Reasons in order of importance:
A: Appearance. I eliminated the stock muffler, and installed a small, red glasspack muffler. The paint on the bike is light blue. While I like the idea of the red muffler, but it clashes with the existing paint. Black wrap blends with black frame for appearance. B: Children. Hoping to potentially avoid having one of my kids brush against the exhaust and burning themselves. Yes, they have been told, and explained, but a slight brush of a hot header will burn them. Maybe, just maybe, with the wrap they get spooked, but not a blister. C. Much further down the list but keeping the exhaust gases hot keeps up velocity, and aids in cylinder scavenging.
Primarily A and B. C is for the wife, to aid in justification of the outflow of $$
