Fitting a Viper exhaust on my sv650s 2002 - SV650.org

erm, ok, the question here is.....on a scale of 1 to 10 (10 being very difficult), how hard is it to fit a Viper slip-on exhaust on my SV650S (2002), taking in account that I'm a "2 left hands" kind of guy!

Looks like all I need to do is saw off the original exhaust....fit the new one with the supllied connector, and attach the rear support ring where the original exhaust was attached...and that's it?

Thanks for any advice you may provide...

As long as you saw off the old one in the right place its easy.If using an angle grinder dont saw off anything else as well.

The cut is usually between 2-3 inches after the weld where the pipes go from 2-1

No problems. Best to use an angle grinder to (quicker) if you do be careful you don't catch your swingarm when your near to cutting through the pipe. Happy cutting
