Piece of metal with holes on NQ50 exhaust? Is it Needed?

Post by Meatball »

What is that additional piece of metal on the exhaust for on the NQ50? One the screws was loose on mine and rattling so I tried to tighten it and it broke off! Can I just take it off and pitch it or should I find a welder? Im thinking its a heat shield so as not to burn your leg after a ride. Thoughts?
I need to find some new haters...the ones I have are starting to like me.

Yeah, sounds like the heat shield.
