Good job man. Happy to see someone posting up bike work instead of "which blinkers should I get", etc.
Patchy stock 08-9 Exhaust Fix
There have been a few posts about the poor quality of the stock exhaust on the 2008-09 CBR1000RR. The problem IMO is the paint honda used is very thin and it looks like its dried wrong. mine also had bare metal in parts.
I thought i would have a go at painting my exhaust.
The heat shield is easy enough to get off, just 3 bolts, and with a sheet to cover the bike, I began to spray the exhaust with High Temp Exhaust Paint.
Even though the whole job took less than 10mins, I couldnt wait for it to dry so I turned the engine on to heat the paint up
The final job is much better finish and a its uniform colour. Unfortunately i got a good fingerprint on the paintwork, but nothing ant... does is completely perfect
