The PO of my xj11 obviously laid it down or ran over something like a high curb. The result is a partially compressed left outside header pipe (#4?) The actual compression is under the bike so it does not look bad or even show.
I am planning on pulling the exhaust system and painting it black this winter with high-heat paint as the chrome is discolored, scratched, rusty etc.
I will probably replace it next year or so when I want to spend the $$.
My question is this: Since it is not punctured and the bike seems to run well, is this an issue for performance or engine life?
