How to clean the exhaust?

Tollum · Jul 23, 2014

My exhaust is looking so crappy. Anyone know if there is something I can clean it with?
Tried to scrape it with my nails, but it dident go away.
Would be awesome to get it nice and clean.

Got no idea what the peoples that changed the exhaust did, to make it look this bad

I naively thought you would be asking how to clean the inside

thats just a few scratches, if its Titanium just make it smooth again with finer grades of sandpaper and ride it to get it nice and hot for the blue tint

It looks to me like a type of exhaust joint sealant. Wurth perhaps. Some 00 steel wool or a grey Scotch Brite pad with plenty of elbow grease should take it off. As Bush said fine 500-800 grit sandpaper could sand it off. A bronze wire brush on a die grinder would be my preferred way of getting it off. A bench grinder with a bronze wire wheel is one of my favorite tools for cleaning nuts, bolts axles etc.

Thanks for the answers!
I will take it apart after the season. Hopefully make it nice and shiny again.

Given that you have no brake light, your bike is loosing coolant I think a bit of jointing compound on your exhaust is the least of your worries

It was leaking coolant since it was so hot, and I let the bike just run while I tried to fix my brake light so it boiled.

The bike is fine now. Except for the brake light.

I would use #0000 steel wool and a polishing compound.
