Hi Fred,
Yes, I think it does. On the Classic the oil line could run up between the
two cylinder heads hugging the engine closely and did seem top stay cool
enough. A thin stainless steel shield will also reflect a lot of the
radiant heat and help to alleviate the problem. The Classic doesn't have
the "Y" so be careful .
