The Honda 2000 engine is so small, it does not produce much heat. With your hand, very little heat 6-inches away from the exhaust.
I did not have my cover secured properly when pulled back for operating the Honda in the rain, and the cover slid over the exhaust. You can see where it burned a hole in the vinyl cover. Actually, it did not burn, just melted the plastic of the vinyl, with no harm to the cloth backing.

The EUX2 shroud covers the entire muffler/exhaust assembly, and uses a 4-inch aluminum flex (clothes dryer) to divert the exhaust. It relies on the air flow from the honda exhaust system to move the exhaust out of the flex. I am not sure if the Hondas fan blows out the exhaust end of the Honda. I will have to do some testing to see just how hot it gets a few inches from the muffler, and also to see if the Honda fan pushes air across the muffler.

I have several options for routing the flex, to move the exhaust above the roof of the TC. I could use only enough flex to connect to a solid piece of plastic pipe, probably plastic a post or plastic downspout.
