    A Special Note about Email accounts!
    DO NOT SIGN UP USING hotmail, outlook, gmx, sbcglobal, att, bellsouth or email.com. They delete our forum signup emails.

    A note to old forum members...
    I receive numerous requests from people who can no longer log in because their accounts were deleted. As mentioned in the forum FAQ, user accounts are deleted if you haven't logged in for the past 6 months. If you can't log in, then create a new forum account. If you don't get an error message, then check your email account for an activation message. If you get a message stating that the email address is already in use, then your account still exists so follow the instructions in the forum FAQ for resetting your password.

    Have you forgotten your password or have a new email address? Then read the forum FAQ for details on how to reset it.

    Any email requests for "can't log in anymore" problems or "lost my password" problems will be deleted. Read the forum FAQ and follow the instructions there - that's what we have one for...

  • Returning Visitors

    If you are a returning visitor who never received your confirmation email, then odds are your email provider is blockinig emails from our server. The only thing that can be done to get around this is you will have to try creating another forum account using an email address from another domain.

    If you are a returning visitor to the forum and can't log in using your old forum name and password but used to be able to then chances are your account is deleted. Purges of the databases are done regularly. You will have to create a new forum account and you should be all set.

What does your header pipe color say about your jetting or engine state of tune? Still chrome (no coloring )=?, Blue=?, Gold=?
 
In starting my bike with new exhaust the header pipe is turning gold---? What this means I don't know.
 
my 4-1 was blue all the way back and half way up the silencer when i got it. carb re-build and shims since, but now can't tell now.
 
+1 on the gold, although your best bet is to keep an eye on the plugs for color.

Aye, Single wall pipes will colour a bit no matter what really. Unless youve got it running so cool that you're sooting up your plugs.
A lil gold tinge is ok on the headers.. but I also suggest reading your plugs!
 
Yeah I haven't done any runs on the street yet. I just finished this bike from a total rebuild and have yet to get it off the lift. Hopefully this weeked I will run it and do some plug checks.
