The exhaust guard on the front pipe on the Raptor gets extremly hot. Has anyone else noticed this. My friends have other ATV's with the guards that do not get this hot. Any ideas?

Yes mine also get hot. Not as hot as I would imagine the pipe is but you don't want to leave your hand on it either. I haven't really noticed it because I always wear long pants but I did notice the heat coming from it when checking the oil.
