It will literally burn your butt and leg.

not exhaust heat- cvt heat.

Odd, because I don't really notice CVT heat to be a problem with any of my Can Am ATVs. They get a little warm, but not bad at all.

All six of my can-am's did- You won't notice it too much unless it's already hot outside- 80* or above.

Other then for mudding, It's a major reason people snorkel their can-am cvt's- to dump the heat and let it breath.
