Thank you EG.... you're a good man.

I just spoke to Pat, the owner.... $100 for a double coat on the muffler with ""Tech Line™ CermaKrome™ "" and $200 for the whole system (including headers).

Mine is shipping out to him this week.

Johnboy,
I'm a newbie at this ceramic stuff. I didn't know that they'd have an option of more than one coat. Does that make it better, more protective? How could you even tell one coat vs two coat? I plan on physically handing my muffler to them and asking questions. When I spoke to Pat he said that they had a new formula black ceramic coating that was tougher than the one on the website. Depending on how ambitious I am tomorrow I might pull the muffler and head over there. Whatever I find out I'll pass on here.

""Whatever I find out I'll pass on here.""

Thanks, EG.

Pat was the one that mentioned the double coat. Also, I need to figure out if I want silver or the stock black look. I think I might want to keep my bike looking as stock as possible from here on out.

I'll wait for you to report back, before I send him my can.

Looks like I need to find a spare exhaust so I can send something off. Much more than a week without the Uly, I start climbing the walls.

Definitely interested in hearing about the black; I'm just not sure I can deal with chrome given Buell's heritage. She might start thinking she is going to be cleaned and polished more than she's ridden.

Isn't the race muffler ceramic coated, as well? I think it might look more like that, than actual chrome....no?
