Wrapping the Pipes
Wrapping the Pipes and making them look the bobber part.
Got my Titanium Pipe Wrap in the mail today and couldn't wait to put it on. SO with a little forethought I started wrapping from the rear of the pipe and left about 4 inches of the "good" chrome still showing. This made for a sharp contrast between darl wrap and chrome and made the pipes really stand out. The trick here is the Mounting bolst on the back of the pipes. Make sure you mock your pipes on the bike and note where the bolt is so when you start wrapping you know how to wrap the bolt into the pipe. You'll see exactly what I'm talking about if you look at your pipes.
The next piece is the pipe clamps that clamp the pipe to the head, this is rather tricky especially if you use the stock ones since they have a very rigid design they are hard to expand enough to open over the wrap and the pipe. BUT with a little prying and a one bolt two nut expansion thinga-ma-bob i was able to pry them enough to get it on.
