They make the driver hot when they are not wrapped. They insulate the rest of the machine when they are wrapped. The extra heat in the exhaust gas helps it retain its energy and makes the machine more efficient. It also removes a small amount of noise from the headers. It also saves your textile riding gear from a burn.

If applied to regular steel or iron pipes it can cause major rust, but our machines use stainless. It does smell bad and may smoke for a very long time. The paint can burn off and look ugly.

No heat issues. I repaint about once/year, and the paint only stinks for about 5 minutes. It's due for paint job in that picture- got about 6,000 miles on it....so it doesn't get too bad.

Don't go powder coat, our pipes get too hot. Get them ceramic coated.
