Did it hold up well?
I'd be surprised if a paint would last. The exhaust temp of the buell is very high. I tried a high heat header paint on a truck header once and it burnt off the first time I heated up the engine.
I just got mine ceramic coated. I believe they call it cerakote. Supposed to be good up to 1800 degrees
No offense to anyone but I used the vht ceramic on my cherry bomb muffler on my dodge ram......it has not held up well at all. I would look into jet hot coatings if I were u..swing by ur local powder coater some of those guys do high temp header stuff.
Cerakote is the way to go. I believe it's what dean uses on his pipes and custom headers when specified, as well.
Mine has held up just fine, like everything else it's all in the prep. Photo0124.jpg Been on there for 4 years now.

10-4 good to know.
I agree, all in the prep, and a decent paint.
BUT!!! The stock header looks so good raw stainless, I wish mine wasn't painted when I got it...
