I was just wondering if this was actually the case, or if the belt guard can be fitted without having to do all this? Thanks in advance

It's tight to get to a nut or two and a hot exhaust wouldn't help matters!!!!

And i've felt the pain of the hot exhaust before, my leg brushed up against it while wearing shorts
