Default thunderheader

Just put a thunderheader on my 06 dyna this weekend. I like the look but am a little concerned. I bought the heatshields but they dont really cover a lot of the pipe. Those of you that have one do they discolor easily or anything. Posted this in the exhaust section also. If you use anything to clean or protect let me know. Thanks.

mister, It's bad form, and may offend some, me, to brag about
your new stuff without a picture.

I have a ceramic coated black t-header. I give the sound a 10, looks a 7.5, character a 10. The ceramic coating scratches very easy, but nothing a sharpie can't fix!

I have had my t-header for about a year, and my bike is running a tad rich, mine has yet to start to blue.

I would hate to be the guy behind me when i cruise by! even on a stock motor it sounds wicked!

I ordered the H-Q hi comp big bore kit yesterday, OMG its gonna be loud!


PS misterrick, your bike looks wicked SICK!!!
