Does set the can apart from the others, makes it a little less blingy to.

Nice! Does set aside from the shiney stock shield. Good find. I never used that site.

heres a crappy pic, but it looks real good IRL. i used engine block paint, matte black... i think good up to 500°f... the muffler shouldnt get above 300° so its good.

Looking good!

Takes the edge off the 'glowing' massiveness of that can!

I went with the high gloss black to try and match the body a little better


also painted the chrome ring

That works! Any chance of a whole bike pic, get an idea of how it all goes together.

I spent some time (and dollars) blacking out my 250r, but I could never get the nerve to paint the exhaust. That looks like a nice job you did there. I think the black can was a good idea by Kawi, they should have gone the whole way with it!.

Wow, Max would be proud! Nice bike dude!

Yes,, I'd like to see how a black-painted can would hold up.

 

[zribeiro23]

soooo just to specify, i didnt paint the can only the shield and the ring...

I think Kurt is referring to the 08-09 250's. They came with a polished muffler. They changed that in 2010.

I also don't see the point of painting a can black when you can just get a stock one and toss it on there. Mine's sitting in my spare bedroom...lol
