Nothing inside my exhaust. Ceramic coating on the exterior only.
Not sure of the local coater or brand of ceramic coating.
Not usually a question I ask
You know where they are located? It's a toll free number they posted
They have installers all over, my guy is also my powder coater. I guess do a Google search in your area. Not cheap but it lasts.
For those with the negative comments, I did the full exhaust on my Road Glide about 8 years ago, including mufflers and heat shields. I do not believe it is inside the pipe, just on the outside. I have about 30k miles on that coating, looks the same and no negatives. I scratched the muffler and a heat shield a couple of years ago, had them re-done, they match the rest.
We'll see how low profile the ceramic exhaust looks on this bike. Looking forward to it. It will also be interesting to see how much patina will be left on the old primary case after some polishing.
Seat... The seat I have for it fits the bill for a solo FLH IMO, while not being a pogo style (I do like the pogo seats). The seat I have is a super basic fleebay Corbin Gentry. Got the look but the foam feels weak.
I sure see some nice Le Pera saddles that this bike may deserve down the road. Got a Le Pera on a Sportster and its a nice saddle. Still trying to keep the bike relatively basic.
Patience is a virtue.

Good News...In my Day, Jet Hot's Claim to Fame was the coating inside and out... Cost our shop plenty!!!
How about a progress pic or two...
Continuing solid gains on the bike. The primary is on! Maybe a complete bike next week other than a ceramic coated pipe. The coater might be dodgy. Or busy.
I will see it in person next week.

Jet hot has worked on our NHRA super gas car 10 years they then re did them for free as it was chipped
how do i know — pull the hood off no coating your blasted with heat and need easy 45 min before doing anything with the engine
wrapped the headers works and reduces the heat — but the Jett hot in silver or the black really reduces the engine compartment just a guess 200 degrees
almost every car at a National event the headers are coated - NO it’s not copy cat $hit in a crus night to a walmart parking lot BTW
Well I ain't got an engine compartment, won't be running the 1/4 mile and don't generally go to walfart, so zero for three here.
Only looking for a durable exterior finish for my exhaust. I follow the concept though - not so sure there is a Jet Hot anywhere near me.
Edit: Apparently you send your item to Jet Hot for their coating. They send you a printed label.

Forgot - the idea is simple. The higher the heat on the inside of the pipe the faster the air moves - above is an unintended consequence of the idea
John, do you or anyone know the average turn around time for Jet Hot? ...Itching to get my bike finished up and not a lengthy turn around time on a part that gets sent off.
And then there is sending off our beloved Harley part... My FedEx and especially UPS beats on my freight.
I believe in the durable finish of ceramic, and that may be good enough for my lowly road machine. Reducing heat is good though.
