I don't know where this post should be, but i have a 2008 Kawasaki Bruteforce 750.. i was towing my brothers 400 bombardiar home because it broke down, my bike was having no trouble towing it at all,and the exhaust pipe going into the motor was so hot(bright red) it caught some grass on fire that was under neath, and the heat wrap above the exhaust... is this caused from towing it? or is there another reason why this would happen, it was still bright red after i let my father tow my brothers bike the rest of the way, i drove another 15 minutes to get home and it was still glowing.. what is wrong???

It could have been just from towing it, but it should not get that hot. Is it running fine? It could be running lean.

You would have to take it into Gords because its all in the computer and you can't change it unless you buy a $300 EFI tuner and a stock bike shouldn't be running lean anyway.
