Bike runs strong but turned yellow within minutes . That wouldn't be a jetting problem , would it ? I would think it would take a few days . With stage III it actually ran rich . Making me vervous . Rode about 60 miles yesterday on the interstate . tons of power ever from the get go . Let me know what you think .   Logged     The administrator has disabled public write access. #82477 Musky (User) Platinum Boarder Posts: 15137 Re:pipes turning yellow 4 Years ago   All pipes turn color. That's why they came up with heat shields. What's your jetting?   Logged       The administrator has disabled public write access. #82497 Flashback (Moderator) Just the facts, Ma'am.. Moderator Posts: 9221 Re:pipes turning yellow 4 Years ago   If they have chrome on them they will discolor..unless the pipes are double walled, or like Musky said heat shields, and for 159 bucks, I bet the chrome is not the best in the world..   Logged       The administrator has disabled public write access. #82520 Clifford (User) Platinum Boarder Posts: 1781 Re:pipes turning yellow 4 Years ago   KREEM the people who make a fuel tank sealer also make a liner for pipes. It can only be used on brand new pipes! If they have been installed and the engine run once it can't be used! You take a new pipe and thoughly clean it, plug one end, pour the stuff in and plug the other end. Flip & flop the pipe around to completely coat the inside, then open the ends and hang to drain all day or over night. Give it a second dose hang to drain again and it's ready to go. You wind up with a ceramic lining on the pipes which is an insulator.
