[QUOTE="ionbeam, post: 997436, member: 277"] I do a lot of riding in the rain and that definitely affects the pipe color. If you are really (really) concerned about *something* being wrong take your bikie to a shop with an EGA tester and have them stuff a probe up your pipes and measure CO, Nx and HC readings. Since the cats mix exhaust from the headers, side to side tail pipe emissions should be the same. If there is something wrong the tester will sniff it out. Once you confirm that there is nothing wrong Simchrome your pipes and just ride it. Simchrome seems to be one of the better polishes and evidently they charge you for the performance. I have a large old container that I'm still using up. [/QUOTE]
