    450R set me on fire!

    Yep, I was riding down the road and it was pretty windy and my jeans were touching the headpipe and the caught on fire! Burned about a 3 inch hole in my pants and burned my leg. No damage to the bike thank god. It was kinda funny so I thought I'd share.

    I was liting fireworks off my stock headpipe, I would suggest you wear riding pants and riding boots in the future...

    I was doing about 50mph so as soon as I pulled by leg back it pretty much blew out but I just patted the rest out. Yeah I need some riding boots for sure. Almost all of my shoes have holes in the bottom from kickstarters. I actually don't even have any riding apparell whatsoever.

    i heard the fire was started from the friction created from you having to kick start the thing so much
