Very interesting but the price list is dated 2002!

Since the view of your headers is restricted by the fairing I also suggest going with the Matt Black option.

The range of Gloss colours is interesting mind

I already spoke to them today and they quoted me 85+VAT for inside out...

Better price compared to Zircotec's 230+VAT (they use different technology though, but still....)

with that swingarm, the modern look of the bike along with the latest in radial calipers and wavey discs I'd have to go with the cermakrome, the black would just be out of place unless you powder coat the frame and swingarm black and swap to a yellow body kit

So Zircotec is 3 times the price, but which one uses the better/more efficient technology that provides the biggest performance increase? I'm genuinely asking as I'm ignorant about this technology, but curious.

If you said Zircotec would give 10 percent performance improvement, whereas Camcoat's website only says 5 percent, well £230 + VAT, in the bigger scheme of how much I'm spending on my bike at the moment, is not that big a deal!

I'm not really looking for the best performance just by coating the headers (on my engine, the difference - if any - would be minimal).

Maybe zircotec's coating is better if used on more powerfull vehicles...

Why do you think this would be minimal on the 1000DS engine? Being air cooled I'd say heat dispertion would be a very high priority if you wanted optimum performance from this engine.

because I never thought that by coating the exhaust headers I could see such a big difference on the actual engine temperature/performance



anybody here who has tried both Camcoat and Zircotec??

Recently done by Camcoat on the same model. They say it should last for years. Service was very good.
