Fitting exhaust
 
Ok, due to pick my scorpion up from P&H in crawley tomorrow, question is....

I'll be doing it on my own so am i better cutting the pipe whilst its all still connected to the bike or taking the 3/4 system off completely and cutting it separately?

Fitted mine while leaving the pipes on the bike. Take care you don't put that hacksaw or disc grinder in the swinger though

Then that is what i shall do! I'm going hacksaw, the whole idea of using a grinder that close to my bike when i haven't really used one before scares the bejesus out of me! :)

Cheers

It's easier if you go & buy y'self a cheap Reciprocating Saw (from Aldi/Netto etc.) & a pack of blades - You'll zip through the stock pipe in no time :!: Much more control than a grinder :roll:

Much less effort too :D
