Re: fitting exhaust
Get him to do it himself.
It is quite easy, although if you use a junior hacksaw it takes a while. When I did mine I managed to get a complete standard exhaust from e bay where the silencer part had scratches on it from a spill. I just cut that one up and saved the original in case I ever want to put it back on ( can't ever see that happening ) If your mate has the facility to take the whole lot off it is easier to get a nice even cut, although you don't see the cut after fitting the link pipe. |

Re: fitting exhaust
Did mine myself (well a friend did it), took literally 2 minutes with a hacksaw. Just measure, mark with tape, cut, then file off any nasty edges. Definitely a DIY job!
BTW I'd offer but I don't have a hacksaw. If you can source me one I'll come and point out useful/less stuff. |

Re: fitting exhaust
ive got an electric angle grinder if you want, its my housemates but im sure he wont mind it being used for such a good purpose as making a bike sound more awesome. Im happy to do it for him if he wants but i make no guaranties that it will be perfect.

Re: fitting exhaust
hacksaws cost about 50p...well maybe a bit more but they aint gonna break the bank, and it's p*ss easy. you can't go wrong, just make sure you offer the can up forst and get the cut in the correct place / angle.
Good luck! |
