MOAR pics.

sorry but we need a pic of this.

as for cleaning it off, paint scraper, hot engine (go for a 10/20 minute ride) while its re-melted use the scraper to remove the mass bulk of it then as it gets to a rubbery viscosity peel the remainder off

Never managed to get my gunk (waterproof pants on one bike, plastic carrier bag on the other ) off completely but I can share a funny moment re the carrier bag.

Well it might be funny to the older or more "old skool" members on here anyway.

The bag blew into the exhaust while we were on the way to a bike show hosted by a backpatch club based in South Yorks. When we got there we asked a friend of ours, who is a member of the club, what was good for removing melted plastic from exhausts. He thought for a moment. "Erm, a prospect?" was his eventual reply.

You say it's on the "link" i.e the link of the silencer?

Use a brand new stanley blade as a scraper, pulled backwards, after rubbing in some WD40 or GT85.

That's what got the lining of my MA1 jacket off my exhaust headers.

Plastic bag is a hell of a job to get off a downpipe, as said prospect or gimp job.
