Year before last I had my headers ceramic coated in black by Zircotec. It looked fantastic when I fitted it back on the bike. But, after a couple of thousand miles it began to look very shabby with what looks like rust coming through. Has any one else had any experience of exhaust coatings?

Me too, my right hand hero blob ground away long ago and now the end of the footrest is gone! On the nearside the wear is nothing like as bad.

Would you ship to the uk?

Looking for an original screen for a 2007 FZ1S in reasonable condition.

Fitted some Copperdawg flies and junked the AIS crap. Didn't get any block off plates. Used the originals, cut off pipe connector tubes flush with plate face and put in a stainless nut and bolt with a fibre washer. Re-mounted plates the other way up so bolt is not visible. Job done!:tup:

I just bought some flies off Copperdawg. Less than a week to deliver! I have waited longer than that for domestic deliveries. Big up for the dawg.

Have to agree with the Road 2CT camp. I can ride on these as fast as anyone and in the wet they are absolutely brilliant. Yes, I do like to ride fast in the wet, especially since Michelin gave us the Pilot Road 2 CT.

I actually did this myself using Tech-Line Satin Black. Had the pipes sand blasted and applied the coating with an airbrush. Cant believe how easy it was to put on.

I ceramic coated my headers.[/IMG]

It has to be black for me. Just Ceramic coated the headers and I am well pleased with the results.

That's nice and just what I am looking for. Thanks for showing that

I am doing my headers so normal powder coat is no good. This stuff resists temp upto 2000 degrees! Just wondering how well it sticks and is it durable against stone chipping etc.

Any of you guys had any experience with this ceramic coating? Does it stay on and look good or does it peel off like most other coatings?

I have noticed that US bikes have a nice FZ1 sticker on the side of the fairing. I haven't been able to find these in the UK. Anyone know of a dealer that ships worldwide that may have these?

I thought that but when I took the headers off today to get them powder coated they were very light grey inside.
