I was shortening the inlet pipe this afternoon on a spare muffler off my old Yamaha R1. (Actually, it was the original that got scratched up when I highsided at Putnam Park a few years ago.) Those mufflers are labeled "titanium", and I assumed it was just the main body of the muffler that was titanium, and the shiny inlet pipe was stainless steel. However, when I was cutting the pipe shorter (I'm adapting it to my big mower, in place of that POS muffler that came on the B&S engine) with my chop saw, the sparks were bright white/silver. I've cut a lot of stainless steel before, and it never did that, so I'm assuming the pipe was titanium too. So, anybody else ever cut/grind titanium (and get those same bright sparks)?
