Wrapping a 2-1 header?

Search-Fu returns nothing...

I've wrapped individual pipes before but not a 2-1 header. Any idea how much wrap it will take? This is for an XS400, so it may be slightly less than a 650 header.

Also, as I head over to YouTube to search for videos, any hints on making the connection where the two pipes merge into the collector? How do you wrap it when all that stuff comes together?

I used every inch of a 50' roll to wrap the MikesXS 2-1 for a 650. I wrapped the header on the side that doesn't have the endpipe on it down to the junction first, held it in place with a zip tie and then cut the wrap. Then wrapped the other header down to the junction and when I got there I cut the zip tie, wrapped over the other wrap so that I came up from the inside (between bike and pipe) before the junction and then over the junction, wrapping from the inside to the outside (if that makes sense).
