My header has melted my fairing into 2 seperate pieces. I think I'm gonna zip-tie it but after that should I put heat resistant tape on the fairing? Or maybe wrap the header with heat tape? Anyone ever been in this situation....what should I do to fix the problem?

yep.. happens all the time on gixxers. Wrap those headers.

just watch out .....one of my friends just caught his gixxer on fire because of the. he was doing a burnout trying to finish off a tire and it got so hot it caught on fire!! luckily he put it out before the whole bike went up

I'm about to do the same thing.......minus the fire. Do I have much life left in my tire with 1" of steel exposed?

I'd say another thousand miles or so, or a 10 second burnout.
