hey all
i have a sv1000 with serious exhaust neglect ...
i took the front header pipe off and just ..brass wire brushed it back via angle grinder ... did its job ..
but out of curiosity i got a blow torch and heated one end .. to see if it gets that ..copper like sheen after heat again ... as i did this i noticed scab like meterial ..glowing red than just pealing off and floating out the end off the header ..
is this just carbon build up ? or had they may have been ceramic coated and thats what was pealing off...??
in any case the exhaust headers turn into a chrome yoshi 3/4 system ...and has rust in all the ususal places ... weld lines etc .. too far in to scrub off ... in this case.. is the best option re-chroming ??
who does it ? whats it cost??
ive also seen this new stuff at supper shit .. witch has a heat proof base coat ..followed by a ..anodised kinda colour top coat .. witch in theory sounds like it would look awse ..
anybody have any experiance with this stuff??
or what i should do to just get the exhaust looking better than what it does ??
cheers for any help
