I wish mine stayed a nice blue. Mine always end up pitted with black and sort of flaking. All my GSs have done this - I don’t know what I’m doing or failing to do that they do this. The only time they stayed decent was when I had put after market headers on.
Isn't there some sort of toilet cleaner you can use to clean ?
Think it was harpic.

Never mind... can't see them whilst riding 
Didn't realise BMW do Chrome or Stainless.. the chrome ones being more expensive at the breakers?
So do this suggest the chrome ones are just Stainless ones plated? (was going to try mine with a magnet this AM but forgot)

I believe the chrome on the TE is chromed stainless, but could be wrong. If is 304 stainless a magnet will still stick, but very weakly, whereas 314, often called marine grade is not magnetic.

Mine have gone a really strange pattern. From dark to light in a straight line, but with no fading.
I tried putting a picture up but I cant get photobucket to work any more :/

Hate cleaning bikes at the best of time... But the GS is a sod to do...cleaning / polishing pipes are not top of the list for sure... But its just a shame as they were mint... anyway, they arn't now so move on.....
I'm not keep on after market units.. everything I have is modified in one way or another.. I wanted to keep the GS very standard

Exactly what mine look like, I also have an added effect which looks like water marks. As I’m getting to old to get down there and clean it or even look at it, it’ll stay as it is.
