Thanks for that mate, It's loud just the end can, got a standard front pipe BIG ONE end, will the DEP rear be loud too, i spose as long as i take a bit of wodding out the end of it. seems to use more fuel with my big one can though, it pops sometimes, i spose the fuels gotta go somewhere!

I think it's got everything in it still, i dont really want to spend out more money to get it gutted really, and im no good at doing things like that myself, it should save me a little bit of fuel with the DEP pipe, as ive taken a little wodding out the BIG ONE

I've had my dep for a while and its go no signs of rust. So not sure where you're comig from. The exhaust says a lot about the owner. Not reguarly cleaning the bike will lead to rust. So thats just down to poor maintenance.

No. Its the fact that salt reacts with metal. It won't react with a special coating.
Take this for example. The Yamaha TDR 4FU cylinder. Aluminium cylinder, like the dt. It has microns of special coating inside the bore that allows the piston to compress gas and do its cycle. Now without this coating of Nikasil the piston would just scrap away the aluminium and destroy the barrel almost instantly. But suddenly a small amount of nikasil is lined against the aluminium and its all fine.
Same with the pipe. Use a special polish that will cover the pipe and it will be enough to stop the salt corroding the pipe. Until it washesoff of course.
i dont mean chemical bashing ,i mean physical bashing ..lol the sand and salt hit the bike so hard it strips any coating you put on it strait back off and then lets the corroding begin anyway ,no gettin round it
I couldn't find any ACF-50 in my local bike shop, so settled for another one which was apparently good quality, so the shop said. Applied it twice in all, done about a thousand miles since, DEP is rusty. Will buy some ACF-50 from eBay. :D Accept my apologises. I guess its that rubbish rust stuff the shop sold me. :/
