My CRM pipe was like that, I spent hours with a wire brush, then some wire wool and then some autosol cleaning it, so much so my arm was hurting for a couple of days afterwards, it then rusted up with a couple of weeks again, I never thought of spraying the rust silver, because you wouldn't be able to see the shine that well anyway curled away down there, but the rust sticks out like a sore thumb.
Steve, that fresco pipe must be worth something now, I believe they're no longer a company aren't they? When are we going to see your KMX on the dyno, anyway? ____________________ Current:1991 Honda MT50 (Soon to be a H100/MTX/MT5 hybrid), 1976 Honda Cub C70, 2005 Honda Varadero 125, 1993 Yamaha TTR250 Open Enduro , 2010 Road Legal Stomp YX140, 1994 Honda CRM 250 MK III, 1999 Cagiva Mito 125, 1992 Honda CB400 Super Four, Stomp T4 230, 1984 Honda H100s, 2009 Sym XS125K

I repainted the old exhaust pipe again using VHT flameproof paint this time, but doing it properly with primer and curing in between coats. The paint apparently withstands temperatures of upto 1100 degrees (centegrade) but it lasted a matter of days before it started to bubble up and flake off the header
The paint on the silencer held up though due to the lack of heat towards the rear, but i gave up on the front pipe and spent £185+p&p on a shiny new DEP one!

It looks really good tbh, a nice summer town and country roads bike!
The pic however is a terrible shot as the background means I barely noticed there was a CRM250 there at all! |

Thanks....
@stevo: it wasn't intentional for that mexico to be in the background but it is a thing of beauty and it does steal the limelight away from the CRM i must admit

Crm250.com should have a few topics on this |
Wondering which would be better for the lols - mainly road use. Probably this, but I like to go to extremes and the CR250 looks to be a bit more extreme.
That and CR500's are a little pricey these days. ____________________ CBT Passed: 30/08/2009, Theory Passed: 31/08/2010, Mod 1 Passed: 6/9/2010, Mod 2 Passed: 13/09/2010. Restriction ended 13/09/2012.

Old Thread Alert!
The last post was made 7 years, 300 days ago. Instead of replying here, would creating a new thread be more useful? |
