I like the look of the coloured blue flame exhausts, I know they are not everyones cup of tea.
I intend leaving the baffles in.

How do they get that deep blue colour leading to red and gold on the Titanium cans?

Is it possible to DIY this effect on a stainless steel or chrome can?

Always like the duel port blue flame exhausts but have you seen the new logo on their cans Sick

Thought the old one was nice!

Oh dear! Much prefer the old logo.

The thing is I can get hold of a stainless steel dual port blue flame exhaust but it is stainless steel and not coloured.

So I was wondering if I could DIY colour it.
I assume they use heat to produce the blue?
Maybe it only works on Titanium?

Sounds like something that would end up looking terrible.

Is the SS one on discount? If not why not just buy the coloured titanium one elsewhere?

You are probably right Smile

Yes the SS one is the same can but no colouring and my mate only wants £20 for it. I have seen it and it's VGC. I'll need to get a link pipe as we have different bikes.

New they are £240.

Although it took ages to arrive. About 3-4 months. Confused

I would have it for £20 and make get over the fact its not the coloured titanium with the £200 i have saved!

Would easily fetch more than £20 on ebay Thumbs Up
