Thanks for the tip! Actually, though, powdercoating costs me nothing but time, anymore, as I do it myself at home. That setup is one of the best investments I've made. For now, I just need to see if I like the contrast between the brushed-silver pipes, and the black bike. About the only chrome left on mine are the oil lines and pushrod tubes, so it's really getting somewhat monotonous.
*Unfortunately, this &^$! forum won't let me post pics anymore, or I would.
I feel the same away with my 'train. I'd like to black most of it out but not set on the resources right now.
I'm running Rush slip-on's. I'm still not sold on the chrome heat shields, and may go the wrinkle route.
The more you twist the grip, the louder they sing.
Please god do somethin diffrent everybody on here has v&h. (I know I'm one of them.)
I know what you mean, the big raduis were my first set of pipes. Then i went to myrtle for bike week and everyone and there mother had them, as soon as i got home i sold them the next day.
there is a spray paint that i used to paint my pipes. Its a fire proof 2k degree paint, there is a baking process , that when done correctly it makes it virtually chemical proof. Its made by vht and they have a site its pj1.com. It works well and alot cheaper than powder or jet coating.
