Default Exhaust cutting point?

...fitting instructions for a Scorpion Street Extreme exhaust?

Need to know how far from the weld you cut the exhaust

Cheers

It's normally 40 - 50mm from the weld

mister c is right, but you can see how much needs to be cut away by the size of the slip on section on the link pipe. It isn't an exact measurement as small adjustments can be made either way to get a good fit.
Good luck.
P.S. make sure it's a square cut across the pipe and not angled. I measured and put some tape around to give a clear cut line. And you'll need to file the burrs off the stub to make sure the link slips on correctly.

guys, thanks for the replies but i'm not asking how to fit the exhaust

i fitted a street extreme, removed it, fitted a beowulf can and have now removed that

i'm selling the beowulf to someone and need to know where i cut my original pipe, so i can tell them, as the beowulf fits perfectly at that measurement

i've now sealed the OEM exhaust back on mine to sell it so would prefer someone who has a set of street extreme instructions around to give me the measurement from the weld instead of pulling mine apart again...

could you just let me know how far from the weld the cut needs to be for a K3 onwards bike? I don't actually need the instructions as i sold the extreme nearly a year ago, just the info on where to cut

65mm from the weld at the bottom of the link pipe. This is for both the curvy and pointy models.

If anyone one wants the instructions I'll happily send them on, just drop me a line.
