I tried a search, but nothing came up to satisfy my question....
Why does the exhaust pipe discolor, bule/gold?

Never heard of it!
Joking . . .
It apparently has to do with the stock lean mixture settings. Make sure you change the drop-down in the search panel to include all posts. It comes up as "one week" by default. Anyway, here is one of many threads on your question:

To let other motorcyclists know that you've been riding your bike, not just polishing the chrome!

Some might disagree, but IMO blue is lean, gold is rich.

Mine didn't blue till I was listening to the valves, running it up & letting off several times. I guess I got about 2,500 miles on it before I blued it.

The dis-coloring of the pipe is a temp thing. Hot cause color change. Lean is hot.
Have you done any carb tuning on the bike?
