Author Message   Jb2607 Posted on Saturday, September 01, 2007 - 03:31 pm:        I recently purchased an 08 Uly and presently have about 420 miles on it. Last night I noticed that the exhaust tubes had a very slight reddish glow after about an easy twenty mile ride. (at the top next to the cylinders) Should I be concerned or is this normal? Thanks...

My firebolt headers would glow at first, the fan ran all the time too. after 25k the fan almost never came on and the headers would only glow on track days.   Froggy Posted on Saturday, September 01, 2007 - 04:30 pm:        The glow is normal, now get your ass back on the bike and enjoy it BTW, post in the big bad & dirty section for your Uly questions from now on   No_rice Posted on Saturday, September 01, 2007 - 05:50 pm:        the quick board is just fine too though...   Jb2607 Posted on Saturday, September 01, 2007 - 06:04 pm:        Thanks for the feedback fellas... So far she is all I thought she would be and more. JB   Jlnance Posted on Saturday, September 01, 2007 - 08:38 pm:        They glow. Particularly when the bike idles.
