running straight pipes

So i low sided my bike about 2 months ago, most of the damage was my exhaust. I had a slip on scorpion extreme. I rode it daily but now i prob ride it only about two to three times a week. Is running it with straight pipes hurting the valve train? Will I cook my exhaust valves? No back pressure makes it shoot some knarley flames but thats only under rappid throttle closing durring the mid range. So what im asking is should i stop riding it and wait untill i get a new exhaust system. Thanks in advance

its running super hot and lean because of that... I think it would be in your best interest to wait a bit... sorry man
