Who it is perfect for

It is the right piece for those keeping the original mid-pipe on their first-generation Honda CB 1000 R who want to shield the heat from the catalytic converter while showing off a carbon detail. It works well on a bike that remains completely stock or one with only a replaced silencer, as the mid-section remains the original one in that case.

Frequently asked questions

What is the Arrow 11002MI heat shield for?
It is a carbon fiber shield applied over the original catalytic mid-pipe of the Honda CB 1000 R. It acts as a screen between the hottest part of the exhaust system and its surroundings, while also leaving a carbon finish exposed in place of the standard metal.

Which bike does it fit?
The Honda CB 1000 R from 2008 to 2017, the first generation identified by Honda with the vehicle type SC60. This is the only application indicated in the Arrow catalog for this code: for the 2018 onwards CB 1000 R, which has a different system, the correct part is different.

Can it be installed on an Arrow non-catalytic mid-pipe?
No. The Arrow catalog lists the 11002MI as a shield for the original catalytic mid-pipe: the shape follows that specific piece. If the stock pipe has been replaced with an aftermarket one, the heat shield will not have the necessary support and mounting holes.

What material is it made of and how much does it weigh?
It is made of carbon fiber, with an exposed twill weave and a glossy finish. The two mounting holes are reinforced with metal bushings embedded in the laminate, so the screw does not work directly against the carbon. The color is the natural black of the fabric and the catalog-declared weight is 0.15 kg.

Does it change the bike's performance or noise?
No. The heat shield is a protective and finishing element; it is not in the exhaust gas path, so it does not affect power, torque, noise, or emissions. However, in the Arrow catalog, the code remains classified among racing items and does not carry its own street homologation.

Is it an original Arrow product?
Yes. It is the item from the Arrow Special Parts catalog with code 11002MI and EAN 8019799060852, new and never installed. Moon Bike S.r.l. is based in Cercola, in the province of Naples, and ships from Italy with invoice and manufacturer warranty.
