[QUOTE="BenndalebanditFJR08, post: 424476, member: 14127"] OK, I have searched and read the posts about this. But I think my exhaust looks a little excessive. It is Yellow/Gold all the way back to and up the long muffler piece that connects to the exhaust from under the bike. Plus the right side is much more yellow than the left side. The bike is a new 08 bought in early May, and I have 3200 miles on it. I had it back at the dealer for a rough vibration at 4K RPMs and they re-tightened the motor mounts and the exhaust which got rid of most of the vibes. They did not sync the throttle boddies like I was hoping for, so I am currious as to weather a throttle body out of sync would cause my yellow exhaust. I am used to carbed bikes and I know with them you will get a "hot" exhuast if you don't get the mixture right. What would be an exceptable "honest try" from the dealer be? I would like to see them sync the T/B and replace the nasty looking exhaust, but I doubt that will happen. I have had several people ask me what is wrong with my NEW bike to cause such "hot" looking exhaust and I have no answers. Thanks in advance! -bandit [/QUOTE]
