Default strange !

right just fitted my Viper exhaust sweet ! very loud! prob put a DB killer in it but any way

was comeing up to a nice left and the front steped out so i brought it upright and went over to the other side of the road ( luckily no cars) so i just calm down and continue!

come up to another left hander and it dose it again but this time thire is a car thire and i miss him by inches!

surely this wont be anything to do with the viper pipe! my dad hates it and is blameing it on it lol!

oh and also how can i put the standard back on do you lot recon i could put it in place and clamp it with a clip with some exhaust paste? i duno!

thanks rob

It's a handling/tyre/suspension thing. Can't see that it has owt to do with yer can. Same thing will happen with standard on.

As for re-fitting std exhaust, I got a 2" length of stainless pipe (slightly bigger than bike's exhaust pipe) and slit it lenghtways to allow it to clamp up. then I filed the slot so that when it was tightly clamped it just closed the gap. Two stainless pipe clamps and you're done.

No idea - we have a pretty good workshop at work and I scrounged it from them. I'll see if I can scrounge another piece tomorrow and if so will let you know. I've got a couple of spare band clamps you can have.

It's definitely not the exhaust. You were probably just excited and gave it too much wrist action.
