Exhaust Discoloration Question

[memphismike_imp]

Mike, I suspect the answer is that it will depend on what the aftermarket product is made of. I've got almost black headers now and their are golden patches here and there on the muffler—particularly where it joins the collector or whatever it is. As I recall, the standard bikes have a stainless steel header; the DLX has a double-walled chrome headers which resist discoloration.

I've just accepted the discolouratation as a design feature. Others loathe it.

Yes in my short time of 7 weeks owning it, I have accepted that as well. It would tear me up tho to add a nice Pretty chrome exhaust and 500 miles later start bronzing on me!!!!
