I have seen this more and more lately.
Wrapping pipes in some kind of material
This was posted on this site today with a real nice old school Triton, but with the wrap also.

Is it just to act as a heat shield?

What ever happened to just staying away from the hot parts, like we did in the old days?

I mean Honda made the 50cc with a totally enclosed chain guard (marketed toward teens/adults)
(Note: the super cub is still in production and is being sold throughout the world today)

Then Honda also made the 50cc (marketed during about the same time frame) marketed toward Kids with the OPEN chain guard.

(I guess adults didn't know enough in the 60's & 70's to keep their fingers away from the pretty spinning parts)
