Exhaust Clamp size

[jon]

Just a quick one, does anyone have the size of the clam that connects the mid section to the front collector? The link pipe to mid section is 51-55, i'd expect this one somewhere in the range of 43.

don't have the bike to hand or i'd measure myself.

thanks

Anyone? It's kind of urgent as i'd like to get it ordered today so i can fit an exhaust over the weekend :oops:

You mean the clamp that connect the link pipe to the part you've cut?

Or am I completely wrong?

No, that's the 55mm clamp. This is where the mid section joins the front collector, ie the clamp under neath the engine block.

What an excellent link... Though how he's managed to do that to his poor bike, I have no idea... Riding it into the sea regularily, perhaps :) Gave me some ideas though.

I spent too much time riding and not enough cleaning the salt off.

Aye, but even so :) I've done the same miles with mine and all it needed was a few bolts replaced this year!
