Me too, but I have a simple view: if Honda had wanted the 2010-2013 headers to stay shiny, it would have shipped them with double wall headers or a jar of Optiglanz. Mine came with neither so the race is on to see just how discoloured they can get.

Based upon that logic, as your tires slowly lose air, I suppose no effort at maintenance is necessary, since Honda didn't ship the bike with leak proof tires, or an air compressor?
