In the old days we used to fill the insides with caustic soda solution. Be careful though, it'll take your skin off!

We use the spray on "Easy Off" oven cleaner.

When I was a kid, we used to throw our pipes in the camp fire, to burn out the carbon, then use rocks, shook the pipe to break loose the carbon. Then dumped out rocks....That was when I rode a Hodaka

I take an old throttle cable ( just the inner cable) and make a loop, which I insert into my drill.
Then rotor rooter away, pulling in and out as I clean the inside of the pipe.
