A pic of my head pipes after a little polishing work. The bottom pipe in the pic is what it looked before. The top pipe is after. Anybody got any suggestions on what to use for the final pass to get all the scuff marks out.

J&S Polishing does a great job. If you want him to do a quick run over on it then I'd take it to Jim.

I hate to be a stick in the mud, but why would you polish your exhaust? Is it gonna be a show bike or are you running it fairing less?

Also I think Cynister cycles is in the same area as J&S, You could make em compete for pricing. :D

Uh, he rides a TL1000S. No fairings over the exhaust. ;)

But, I don't understand polishing them either, they will just be more of a pain in the ass to keep them looking good than it is worth. Just my opinion though. It does look like a good job though. :up:

You can still get lower fairing for the TL1000S, unless im missing something.

No lower fairing for my TLS. If I had wanted a full fairing I would've bought a TLR.

never dull is pretty good stuff to finish it off. don't think it will take the scuff marks out, but it's good polishing stuff.

fairings are for bikes that leak

the stock tls header is painted black. dirt and crap thrown up by the front wheel sticks to the paint and turns it brown (looks like utter crap within a year). sinc it is stainless under the paint, some have gone the polishing route versus repacing it. i am waaayy to lazy fo all that work. i went yosh
