Guest Posted August 1, 2014 Share Posted August 1, 2014 Got myself a Raceco exhaust from Mike Riley. Also managed to find a company prepared to polish it too! All on the blog Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Martin J Posted August 1, 2014 Share Posted August 1, 2014 That exhaust is a nice bit of work. I had to smile when you mentioned you were gaining in confidence & getting faster on the road. Watch out for plod parked up with sandwiches as you go bombing by Daniel. Looking forward to seeing your track day videos especially if there are some other quick cars on track with you.

Martin J Posted August 1, 2014 Share Posted August 1, 2014 The titanium polished up to a very good finish but will it tarnish over time or are you able to slow this down by using metal polishes? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted August 1, 2014 Share Posted August 1, 2014 Quoting Martin Jeffrey: That exhaust is a nice bit of work. Yes Mike has manufactured it extremely well and the polishers have also done a superb job - massive to both of them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AMMO Posted August 1, 2014 Share Posted August 1, 2014 Yikes! After more than thirty years of running Raceco it's a bit weird for me that the Raceco name is associated with Mike and not me. I'm sure I'll get over it! Mike's workmanship is second to none. Top bloke. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Birkin S3 ZA. Posted August 2, 2014 Share Posted August 2, 2014 When I polish the header pipes on our mx bikes they turn different blue colours, even bright sky blue that stays as long as you keep it clean. I don't think it will get hot enough to change colour unless you stick a cutting torch through it for some extra heat 😬 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
