Termi carbon pipe looks burnt
 
Noticed today that my right hand exhaust pipe (the one from the front) looks burnt. The carbon has gone all dark but only on the top and only on the front half of the pipe.

Has anyone else experienced this and why has it happened?

I repacked both cans two years ago and have a ultimap chip fitted. Could the front cylinder be running hotter than the rear?

Can i buy a new sleeve set (mybe in titanium) to replace the carbon?

Hope there is no damage to the engine!

Any info would be great,
thanks
Bryan

Your wadding has burnt through mate.

Two years old or not the hot gases have been getting to the sleeve which is why its caused the browning of the sleeve.

You can get replacement sleeves but there not cheap.

Try your local Ducait dealer for a Termi rebuild kit I think there called?

Had the same with some I bought so redid them with Ti sleeves I got off a mate second-hand and they looked awesome.

Rebuilt my smashed up Sil Motor carbon can.

Excellent job and quick return service by post.
