My bike which I've had for about three weeks with 250 miles has developed a blue tint on the exhaust. Normally, I would say this is not good and the mixture is too rich but I'm not sure with newer bikes with fuel injection. Has anyone experienced this and should I worry about it?

The bluing on the headers is completely normal. eventually a large portion of the headers will turn blue purple and mix colors. just means that your riding it. lol. you dont need to worry about anything. happens to all bikes.
