I sympathise. My DL1000's pipes turned a mottled crappy brown after a hundred miles. It was't a nice bluing or even yellowing like I used to get om my HD pipes. It looked more like rust than anything. That's why I tried the header paint. It left the pipes with a nice flat black finish that looks 1000% better than before. So far it's holding up; it's been on there 4 months now. Prep is everything; make sure you do a good job roughing up and cleaning the pipes before starting. I had to re-do a couple of spots where I didn't do the best possible prep job. Mask carefully, get some of the blue painter's tape and use it liberally; that spray paint really travels.yes i do ride my bike and no im not a poser i just like my bike to look good unlike some people who use that thay ride there bike and thats way there bike looks like its 10 years old when its only 10 weeks old im sorry but i take pride in my gear
give me a hint, they look the same.....In these dramatic, unretouched photos, you can see the before and after results of the header paint project.

That's why it's best to run the bike over when the rider is ON the bike.I apologize. Run a guys bike down and he will kill ya I say!
