I was wondering what methods you guys used on cleaning the carbon that builds up inside your exhuast pipes? Is there any chemicals i can buy that will disolve it or at least break ti up? or is my best bet filling it with small stones or marbles?

Carb or brake cleaner has always done good for me.

Maybe take it to a radiator shop and have it dipped. Although on the other hand, I am a fan of the bong method!!!!

just use the water hose with a nozzle on it, it will get most of it out.

I find best for 2 stroke pipes (used quite regularly at our shop) take the pipe off the bike, Heat it up nice and good all way around it,,with a oxy/actlyne torch, then Snuff the flame, fill the pipe with Oxy/acetalyne then stand back a bit and light the torch, and just take it to the end of the pipe, should make a Nice loud Snap bang boom pop noise, and Knock all the carbon out.....works good on scooter pipes too.
