I took photos last week to apply for a collector plate. When the side photos were printed, the rusty exhaust pipes looked way worse than this photo,

I decided the pipes needed some sprucing up. They did not come off easily. There are connector tubes which have fused. I used lots of penetrating solvent, heat and a rubber mallet. They would not come apart.

I eventually had to lift of the rear of the bike to get them off around the centre stand.


I painted the headers in flat black high temp paint, and the mufflers is cheap gloss black.

Peace & paint, Dennis
