It could certainly help if you're putting it on the inner-facing sides of the exhaust heat shield(s). I don't know exactly what exhaust you're running, but another option to consider would be the Drag Specialties Frame Mounted Heat Deflector. If you're getting charred under your thigh, it's a nice add-on to help out in that department!
