Unless they've started coating them in the same stuff as the heat shield tiles on the space shuttles you're gonna get rust. Maintenance is the key to preserving any exhaust I would think.
High-temp protective paint would help unless you're going for that chrome look.

Good luck,

Yoshimura used to make a stainless steel header for the GS1100/750. Every once in a while one will show up on eBay. I saw one about 4 months ago.

Hi, any body got any suggestions for a good quality non-rusting 4 into 1 for a GS(x) 1100 ?

Take a look at this:

I am not sure if the header is stainless or not, but it has the look of one. If you truly want corrosion resistance the only way to go is stainless or titanium, but they are very hard to find (non-existent in the case of titanium for the GS's). The ceramic coatings (Jet Hot and similar ones) are VERY tough and do a good job of protecting steel headers. These guys do a DIY home version I have heard many good things about:

Beyond that, paint every spring is about your only option to keeping things looking fresh.

You can always ceramic coat. It won't be shiny, but it will last you from now on.
