What brand and how much? Good or bad on the pipes? Will it rust faster? Just a few ?s on the mod. I have a 04 Dyna Defender and all ready have V&H on it I would like to get rid of some more chrome. Thanks for any ideas

 

good looking bike man. I've heard that wrapped pipes will give you 1 or 2 horses due to the pipes scavenging heat better. Good luck, Black wrap would look pretty mean.

Not sure about the actual HP it would add, but it would have add at least 10-15 visual HP...and thats what counts !

 

my advice.... spend the money on good stuff! i have cheap wrap and it turned white and i have high temp painted it 3 times... I am redoing that this winter as well.... with the good stuff! where ever that may be...

 

the good stuff = d.e.i. comes w/ hi-temp paint and is way thicker than the "pep-boys" type stuff

as for rusting faster...if left wet, i have no doubt it will cause corrosion with a quickness



this is what the cheap stuff will look like after about 5k-6k miles

Thermo-Tec Exhaust wrap is the way to go. Yu can order it from www.summitracing.com
I used the black 2" wrap. Go ahead and order a can of the black spray on coating also.

That's what I used (black 2" wrap) and no problems. Also can be bought direct from Thermo-Tec along with the Thermo-Tec high heat black paint.

 

It all turns colors............or different shades......Go to ebay buy the biggest roll for the cheapest money........buy it.......change it out every 6 mos.................. . . ................

 

x3 on the thermo-tec

 

4X the thermotec from Summit and I used a most of a can of Krylon high heat on mine no fading yet but it still smells when it gets real hot.I prefer Rustoleum High heat but I had the Krylon left over from another project.And in case you're wondering 1 50' roll is plenty.
