I'm going to be a bit of a party pooper here...There's been a lot of discussion on various bike pages and forums recently about wrapping header pipes.
The general consensus of opinion is DON'T do it as it traps moisture and causes the pipes to rot very quickly..
Just passing info on and in no way a criticism of your build Stoli :onya:

Hey Froudy
I have absolutely no issue with comments on stuff bud. ive weighed it up against polishing and wrapping and TBH, there are so many polished and I just favour the look. especially when something that's going on complements it.. I hope!
not all things are for all people and I welcome any and all feedback - beauty is in the eye of the beholder.. shame I'm a bit blind !! hehe
just going for something a bit different this year
Stoli
Not a problem Stoli :onya:
Looking forward to seeing it done ;)
Have they got rust holes you're trying to hide ? :stir:

oooooh.. I see. I must be getting old and out of touch
Nah, you're just all wound up in the new build. Can't wait to see what you've done. You won a prize with it last year if I remember rightly & now you've changed it. Must be something good coming . . .

oh yeah.. I did. I hadn't been on it for over a year and it was just sat in the Garage. there was a bike show near us so I spent an eve with some suds n autosol and rode there next day. Won Best Streetfighter - given by Steve Parrish !
Heres the Pic of me on the way in....
As for this Year. well the GSX would not pass MOT and I couldn't sell it in its current state. ive thought of selling for some time now as I simply do not use it. So, ive blown about £1500 so far on bits, additions, paint, Titanium etc..
Once done and MOT'd I will then stand back and decide if its being sold or kept

I heard if you paint them blue and white the exhaust gas flows quicker... :stir:

It will flow quicker as long as the "paint" is ceramic. :cheers:
now we're missing Notty & Red.
You rang my antipodean friend!!
Looking good Stol and excited to hear Red will be involved :popcorn:
Anti polishing is a passion of mine so interested to see how the wrap holds up! It is available in Black I believe :cheers:
Your 14 always look awesome :) and of course blue and white even with wrapping :)
