| No need to do anything. They get so fracking hot that nothing sticks to them. Everything gets vaporised.
Do not try to clean 'em with anything. --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- ..[You must be registered and logged in to see this image.].In GRiSO we trust! . | |

| This post made me think about getting the road grime off my stock pipes, any one recommend a way to do this, having had fairings for years i have not cleaned a header in a while. I used to use Auto sol and elbow grease on my old Bevel Duke, surely something better has come along in 20 years?

| Hello;
for inox headers you can use the swiss made "Optiglanz". Works brilliant.

Inox is a short for the French word Inoxydable which means "uncorrodable" if that is an English word. Basically a metal that doesn't corrode... So we say Acier (steel) Inoxydable (stainless). | |
