Here are pics with the exhaust installed....

Exhaust and bike looks real nice, but then you have that clutch cover...wtf happened to it?

TitanMonsterS4R · December 05, 2011, 01:21:25 AM

yeah I know. Failed attempt by the last owner. Been searching for a new one for a while. No such luck. Could solve the issue by doing a dry clutch conversion....

That is really coming along.

What about blasting all the paint off the cover and starting over?

TitanMonsterS4R · December 05, 2011, 07:29:35 AM

that's actually not a bad idea. I need to change the oil anyway. So maybe I can kill two birds with one stone.

I think the cover would actually look nice in raw blasted aluminum (I'd use wallnut shell abrasive or something like that I think). I did a KX250's engine cases and swingarm that way once and it had a nice just slightly dimpled matte look. I'm assuming the clutch cover is aluminum, if its magnesium it probably needs to be painted.

that would be killing one bird and one Argentavis magnificens with one stone.

Don't see too many of that color around these parts. Except for DW's SC which is more of a mustard yellow!

YEAH, kind of a ballpark French's kind of mustard...not like a spicy Guldens or anything....

Would have looked good in the antique gold PC to end up looking like Mag covers. Did that to my S2R when I got some baked in oil stains on the covers. - Gene
