I called Camcoat today and the cost for ceramic outside is £133 including VAT & post
I asked what internal coating benefits are and it is corrosion prevention and interestingly insulation, which I suppose is to stop you burning your leg
I think I am going for it as I know it's a lot of dosh, but I want to keep the scoot up to scratch and don't want the exhaust to rust

Is there any absorbant material in a BGM Clubman?

Good shout. Mine was one of the first batch. It had a thin metal sheet tack welded inside and some form of soundproofing material.

I had my BGM clubman Cermakromed by Camcoat couple of years back, very pleased and holding out well as you would expect, will almost certainly last longer than the exhaust itself!

Turn around was around 2 weeks iirc. I did have a small delay when I noticed that the manifold wasn't returned with the pipe but some frantic phone calls by Camcoat they tracked it down to some bloke in Scotland who posted it back to me :roll:

Here is the finished item in ceramic by Camcoat. These guys have been very good indeed, expensive, but they redid as I was vague with my colour choice and it came back too dark. It was my fault and they put it right, not quibble, no charge. Highly recommended. Let's see what if it lasts!

I got mine nickel plated for £50 but I think I got it without vat.

I just had my bgm clubman blasted and coated by a local company in luton, they said it's ok up to 300c and they charged £15 8-)
But my engine builder tells me they got shot into the exhaust and this could get sucked back into the engine :o
He's tapped it, blown it and still some falls out.
Good price but what to do now.
TS1 and PX stay in the garage (future barn finds) out on the GTS 300 when I go out on a scooter.
I know I’ll get there and back
