I'm looking at the FMF Powerbomb header I got in the mail yesterday, thinking I should rig up a heat shield for it. Has anyone done that? I may try to mount the OEM heat sheild on it. I think that one looks nice.

I use the Powerbomb and haven't found any need for a heat shield on it. If I ever mount bags, I think the Q4 can could use something....

This one?

DRC Universal Heat Shield
D31-02-101

Is there spacing between it and the Powerbomb?

Here's my solution: Put the OEM shield on the Powerbomb. Worked out nicely!

If you have removed your rear pegs it exposes your pants of boots to the slip on end of the can. I removed the shield from the right side peg, reshaped it a little and mounted it off of the upper rear peg mount. No more burned up pants or boots. Will post pics later

Nice looking brackets & weld job. thumb I personally don't see a need for a shield on the header but you did a good job on that one. I like the look of the PowerBomb and to cover it with a shield kinda takes away from the bling of having it in the first place. Not that bling is more important than safety, but I don't have a problem with the way I ride in coming close enough to the header to fear getting burned.

So why did you choose the powerbomb over the megabond?

TIA

Just reinstall the OEM. Works fine and it's free All you need is some 1/8th inch aluminum bar stock, a couple pipe clamps, and a few screws. Heat shields for the Powerbomb Header ?? 525406
