Not only Caps... I had to change out the Rear Crossover Pipe (Mount Broke) - So far have replaced 3 mufflers because the baffles break loose..... On My '01 RKC.....

Mine are still black after 1200 miles.

Then again - I had mine tuned before installing the pipes. I think a lot of people are running lean and the heat is discoloring them.

Good luck with the exchanges.

about 4k miles.

Mine turned purple after a short time so I ordered chrome tips. The chrome flaked off after one season. Bub's replaced both sets. Must have receipt!! They are originally covered for 3 months but Bub's extended it to one year because of the problems.

It seems that only the touring exhaust has the problem?

Stopped in Ghost Town HD this weekend. They had broken pipes behind the counter. Seems Bub is having big problems with welds too.

These caps are anodized aluminum. I don't think the combination likes the high heat much and the anodizing is fading. It looks nice new but just doesn't last.

Can't wait for mine to fade....[:@]
