how does this look?
Just got my muffler back from the powder coat place. This is the high temp powder coat good to 1200 degrees F. My question is, how hot does the pipe before the muffler get and could I possibly have it done too? I dont want the headers or anything done, just the single pipe that bolts to the muffler, maybe just about 24 inches or so that way it will match. Also, I know my bike is dirty, I havent had time to clean it since I rode the other day and got caught in the rain.

sweet ! in time, the hi temp powder coat looses some of its "shine" due to the heat but it looks good. might consider having the mid pipe ceramic coated, thatll hold the heat.

I shouldnt be worried about the exhaust yet because my fender eliminator and new rear turns are going to be in, in about 3-4 days, that will be a better improvement than the exhaust. Its starting to come along. Patience is NOT one of my strongpoints!
