Hi,

Is stainless steel supposed to go a golden yellow colour? It's just the new downpipes on the bike have after about 15 minutes of running!

completely normal with stainless pipes. The yellow will gradually spread down the pipes, and if you are ragging it hard enough there will be a blueish band near the exhuast valves as well. Enjoy Thumbs Up

Cheers Pete!

I was sure I had seen it on other bikes, but when you've spent £400 on a new system and it starts changing colour, it puts doubts in your mind!!! Laughing
