Hi there, I wrapped my pipes with titanium wrap; my pipes were starting to rust. By doing so it retains the heat causing the exhaust to flow more rapidly. This in turn draws more air/fuel mixture through the carbs.
I think it make the bike look better.
Just to play devil's advocate, how do you know that this 'faster' exhaust speed is beneficial. Yamaha may well have designed the system to be most efficient at the OE speed.
Is it possible that a faster exhaust speed could lead to reversion?

The looks are a completely different matter.
