RFM Posted September 28, 2009 Report Share Posted September 28, 2009 I do most of my own work, but I'm thinking the next job might be a little beyond me, although it should be simple. I'm thinking of doing a Jet Hot coat on my headers. It's just packed in a little tight with the V-Twin. Any suggestions for a place to take the Aprilia that isn't over the top pricewise to get them taken off? I have a place lined up to do the coating, but think it better to have a seasoned person take them off. Any suggestions? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hue jass Posted September 28, 2009 Report Share Posted September 28, 2009 Take it to Cycle Search in Delaware. Talk to their mechanics. I'm sure you'll trust them. It's something like $65 an hour and you'll get your money's worth. They can also probably hold the bike in their showroom until the work is done.

RFM Posted September 28, 2009 Author Report Share Posted September 28, 2009 It's too hard to get at the Falco's headers?!?!?!?There is a bracket in the way of the rear header. Who knows, maybe the motor has to be moved or tilted to get at it? Two bolts is all that connect it to the casing, but just at an awkward point.
