Regen

Just a heads up...WOW does the exhaust get really hot when in regen. I was hooking something up to move with the bucket and my leg was in front of the exhaust....smelt like I left a hot iron on my pants....then I felt it. It stinks a little bit as well.

Lucky you didn't make contact. I've got type 2 diabetes and a burn on the leg can be a serious thing. Such as, getting burned

again on my Harley exhaust because I rode with my shorts rather than regular jeans. Its not fun scraping hide off a chrome exhaust pipe!!

Those who get burns know Silvadene.

Not that a burn is great for anyone. With diabetes its a longer time to heal & greater chance for infection.

I understand...My dad developed it later in life and his foot Dr. had him scared to death and he took his big toe nails off and killed it so it wouldnt come back cause he told my dad with diabetes he could loose a foot with a ingrown toe nail. So any injury with your feet with diabetes is not good.
