Hi Rob
Thanks for the response and taking the time to lock. I don’t have a pannier carrier. The main reason I was looking at this was because the exhaust heat cover touches the exhaust right at the end. The protector would help to push it out a bit. I did buy a used one on eBay (for a hex Akra exhaust) but the previous owner had cut the jubilee band so the circumference was too short. R&G don’t seem to specify the supported circumference on most of their protectors.
Cheers

i,d buy a second hand heated cover off ebay and cut it short so your showing off the end of the akro seen this done a few times and looks good
i,ve got the carbon cover like below, but i,ve seen the standard cut short to match image and looks fine

Nice spot Rob. Looks good but worried it’s fibre glass with a carbon film. It looks like it’s bubbled in one of the photos. Do you think this one would do the job? https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Yamaha-Super-Tenere-2012-2013-12-13-100-Carbon-Fiber-Exhaust-Heat-Shield-Cover-/112537624310?_trksid=p2349624.m46890.l49292ngilbo
