Sounds like urban legend stuff to me. The logic would be that the copper works as a heat sink and pulls enough heat away from the pipe to prevent bluing. I seriously doubt it. The finned aluminum retaining ring like on old 60's bikes would probably do a better job. BTW, I have had compliments on my blued pipe from riders and non-riders alike. Riders think I'm a bad- a$$, and non-riders have asked if the pipe was a custom color or if they come stock like that. BMW and Guzzi guys wear their blued pipes as a badge of honor. Your not a real rider if your pipes aren't blued!
