Wipe them pipes

I got my riding boots a little too close to the pipes. Rubber from the heal of the boot melted onto the pipe.
What is the best method for cleaning the melted rubber off of the pipe? I've heard a dry SOS pad is good, anything else?

The best thing I have found is to run the bike and get the pipes hot and then spray some oven cleaner on them and just wipe them off. It works great!!

Neverdull

I also found that Neverdull works very well without scratching. Get the pipes fairly warm as Bikerbob said. Neverdull is like a cotton wadding with some sort of cleaner in it so you can apply a little more pressure, if necassary, without scratching. Just don't sizzle your fingers! Good luck.

ive had good luck getting the bike hot/pipes and using crc brakleen brand brake cleaner. keep spraying and wipe with cotton cloth or cotton rags with good results. do not use poly blend rags they l melt on the pipes.

No idea how much rubber you have on your pipes so hard to tell where to start. I got a bit too close to my pipes once with a plastic bag and yep you got it my pipe was wearing bag. I was able to get part of it off after warming up the pipes again and using a damp cotton rag. After the pipes cooled back down I used Nevrdull. I am sure that Nevrdull was invented by a magician because that stuff performs magic. I would NOT touch my pipes with steel wool of any kind.

This happens to me all the time.

I let the pipes get stone cold, then I use a single edged razor blade to VERY gently scrape off the black crap. Works great, fast, and doesn't damage the chrome.
