overheated exhaust pipes

My XS11 has been sitting in the barn. I decided to pull it out and fix it up with my dad. we cleaned the carbs, gas tank, and exhaust pipes out. It starts but after running it for about a minute the exhaust pipes become red hot. It is only happening on 2 of the heads and they are the left side ones. What could be causing this and how can i fix it?
