i don't know of any headpipes that come fitted with mounts for a heatshield

however, if you own or have access to a welder and tap and die set, you can easily fabricate some mounts. simply use a piece of band iron, weld it in place between the headers (similar to stock mounts) drill 2 holes, tap, and you are ready to rock n roll:devil:

this is one of Yoshimuras pipes. I am pretty sure the heat shield comes with it.

Don't sacrifice performance for a heat sheild. You should buy a sparks X-4 or X-6. They do not come with heat sheilds, but a simple way to keep from burning yourself is RIDE IN JEANS. I got a 3rd degree burn on my leg once, and that was enough for me. I never ride w/o jeans.

go to www.sparksracing.com

thermal coating the pipe will keep the heat in a little better too.
