    I use stove paint, see pics, I find that if you heat the pipes with a blow torch first it works much better, and dries a lot quicker. You won't get any runs and it also burns off any oil . Your DIY shop will stock it just to note some temp ranges on the tin , the one I use is to 800 deg image.jpg image.jpg image.jpg

    Last night and this morning I have been negotiating to buy a June 2015 Tiger 800 XCX with 2000kms on the clock. We got close but no cigar. The guy was very difficult to get any info from - like pulling teeth !!

    So the search continues..............................
