Anyone have any experience with this? Opinions if so, plus if you have any pics on how it looks on your bike, I would love to see them.

Used it on two old bikes, I suggest wetting it first to get a good stretch and tight fit. I did the pipes off the bike because we were doing other work and the pipes were off the bike already.

I have used it. It is easier to get tight than fiberglass wrap. it also doesn't smoke like fiberglass does. When I first wrapped my pipes with it, they smoked for just a few minutes and that was it. Fiberglass smokes for a while....

Not the best pic but here ya go. That's the 1" DEI titanium wrap. Like someone already mentioned this stuff is plenty flexible and there's no need to presoak it before wrapping. If I was you I would avoid buying those worm clamps that they offer. They're too bulky in my opinion. I used some bailing wire, the stuff that you get in the building materials section of Home Depot and you can barely see it.
