Rode 2 up with the wife this weekend no problem with the exhaust system. When I first purchased the bike and rode it home I placed my hand on the exhaust cover and it was warm to the touch after 60 miles of riding.

Rode two up last weekend with my wife for about 250 miles. Very comfy. No exhaust heat. We bought a V-Strom because, when we went to Daytona in March and sat on several different bikes, the DL 1000 fit us the best.

Passenger reports very comfortable seating on 3 hour trip. Exhaust temp not an issue. Shields work well.

The exaust was just fine. It was the wind that beat my head back and forth when I ride double. I am 6'. For me it really mess's up the touring aspect of the bike.

What looks like the mufflers is just a heat sheld. You can put your hand on it after a fast ride and there worm not hot.
