Hi,

does anyone know where i can get exhaust gaskets that fit from pipes to exhaust? (not cylinder to pipes, putting after market exhausts on so want new gaskets) ???

I didn't bother with gaskets. No leaks. I did make and fit some taper packers to angle the cans up slightly and slotted the attachment hole at the hanger.

From what I've read I'm sure a lot dont bother, just use a link pipe + jub clips?

Read somewhere about using kitchen sealant...I'll eagerly await to see if my memeory serves correctly.

It's a different attachment for thou's. They are flanged and bolted with quite a larger mating area ( oh err ) so seal easily.

Stock special edition GSXR Anniversary colours. Treat yourself. Davepreston is selling his with tasty extras in for sale section.

Use the old gaskets and a bit of silicone sealant, just in case. I've re-used mine a couple times when swoping for the MOT, no probs.

WHats the sealant like once uve used it and take the silencers off again? ive found the part number for the gaskets but am in 2 minds whether to get them (£10) or to use the old gaskets n sealant

Well...........last week was the first time I'd used the sealant. Thought I'd try it because I'd re-used the gaskets a couple of times. Can't see it being a problem as long as you don't go overboard.

I know others on here have used it before.

I would just use the old gaskets and not bother with sealant.
