Melted rubber on the exhaust.....

[KAR]

Anyone know a good way to get rubber off a exhaust? I went to the track Sunday and from doing burn outs to heat up the tire, I kicked rubber on to my exhaust on the underside of it. While I do like smelling burnt rubber, I don't like having to smell it the whole time I'm riding the bike.

Any tips or tricks would be greatly appreciated.

Goo gone? I have used that on my car to remove rubber and tar before.

ive had pretty good luck with this stuff, available anywhere. i like the liquid over the spray, you can lather it on a little more. let it soak, and then rub hard with terry cloth. after that, any leftover residue usually comes off by scraping with a fingernail. i wouldnt try it when bike is warm either. its a little more brittle when its cold.

What is the material the exhaust is made of? SS?

I always detail my friends race bikes that are absolutely caked in rubber because he goes to the track every weekend. Well I was going through cans of bug and tar remover and it would take hours to clean all the rubber off. He gave me this can called Motsenbockers Lift off and you get it at Menards. This stuff is insane. Spray it right on and it takes anything off. It doesn't damage paint either.
If you don't want to purchase anything you can use a razorblade at an angle to get the peices off.

This is the rubber I have to remove and it's all up the entire underside of the bike and in the rims and everything.

Thanks for the info Thirdgen, I will def be picking that up sometime this week to try it out.


And what person would try and remove it while the exhaust is hot??? Sorry I like my fingers and arms to not get burnt. I under stand the idea of oh heat it up and you can remove it but then you run the chance of it melting to your skin. Yikes!!!!!
