Abstract
A finned cooling clamp for dissipating heat from motorcycle exhaust pipes is comprised of two arcuate collar segments which can be removably interlocked together around an exhaust pipe. The collar segments are interlocked together at their opposite ends by mating locking elements. Locking heads on one end of the collar segments are apertured to receive a fastener utilized for attaching the cooling clamp to a cylinder head of a motorcycle. The interlocked clamp segments form a continuous, annular clamp conforming to the shape of a mounting flange affixed to a motorcycle exhaust pipe. The mounting flange is also apertured, and the fastener extends through it as well as through the clamp collar segments to attach an exhaust pipe to a motorcycle cylinder head.
