    Dented Exhaust

    I Just fixed two similar dents but much bigger which were in my BMW R1200 GSA exhaust headers by simply removing it from the bike and then I filled it with water and placed it in a box freezer overnight and the next day (yesterday morning) woke up and to my surprise, the dents were 95% gone...

    1200gs - dented Exhaust Header - fixable?

    I tried the freezer method of taking off the header pipes on my BMW R1200 GSA and filled it with water and left it in the freezer overnight and it worked! I'll add some before and after pictures. I did not think it would work, but it did. Very easy to do.

    Black or Gold rims?

    I am a bit on the fence, and because I know I may sometimes be a bit impulsive, I would ask for some 2nd opinions before perhaps spoiling the look of my bike. I am considering Gold rims but not too sure I will still like it after a while. What would you choose? Black or Gold rims?
