I agree with GyroBob that the Tan doesn't detract from the bike's good looks, but being a prior OCD person I can see how it might bug you.  So I would go with matching the muffler and exhaust pipe the same finish  Wink

As time goes by the tan appears to be getting lighter.

Are you going to put the rear mudguard on or leave things alone?

Yes I am going to put rear gaurd on. I could do with some ideas regarding strut design or where to get pre made struts from. If anyone has put a tyre hugging rear gaurd on, can you please tell me how you mounted the fender struts.

My opinion on such a sanitary looking  bike.....is lose the heat wrap.  Heat wrap is something I expect on a "rat bike"......and it looks good on those bikes when it is discolored.  You have made a bike that is spotless and sanitary looking.....which is not a strong point for heat wrap.

You need a chrome pipe to match your muffler.....or you could get it white Ceramic coated.  The ceramic coating is shiny and durable and you can clean it.  White exhaust paint is flat and not really durable, and it will show all kinds of stains.....and you will be right back where you are right now.
