Cleaned it and it helped, but is there a fix or a cover? thanks radioteacher Posted 2009-07-13 1:30 PM (#38642 - in reply to #38640) Subject: Re: Any chrome (or black) cover for the exhaust crossover?

LOL Yeah, from day one I always wondered what that darn ugly thing was down there. I figured it out one day checking air in the rear tire. I might have to get some BBQ paint.

I was on my way back home from seeing my Pop when that post was made on Father's Day. None the less, I never say the post until now, and if I saw the title, I thought maybe it was concerning reentry....heat shields, get it....???

Cruiser Posts: 244 Fargo, ND Here's a look at mine.  I couldn't stand the discoloration and didn't want to take the exhaust apart just to powdercoat that little piece, so 600-degree ceramic grill paint.  You cure it in 3 heat-up/cool-down steps, and it's held up well for 5,000 miles so far.
