Before giving any detailed advice, we need to know more......like what is your starting point and why you think you need to do anything. Most of the heat a GZ rider gets is from the engine and not the pipes.

I think you are the first one we have seen to complain about heat from the exhaust.
Do you have the stock pipes and heat shields in place ??

In general, heat shields are good but "muffler packing" is for an entirely different purpose and insulating muffler wraps tend to cook the pipes underneath and make them fail sooner.
