Default Where to cut the exhaust? CCC fitment.

My CCC can has arrived, although the instructions do not state where to cut the original one off. Does anyone know where I should make the cut?

I don't want to go wrong with this vital stage and would appreciate any tips/help or clear instructions.

Thanks very much,

Tim

PS recently returned from a 3600km trip on the SV round the Alps, including the highest road in Europe, full story and pics will follow when I get time, as v busy trying to move back to blighty.

An inch (or 2.54cm) from the weld should be sufficient, any probs, call CCC (Ahh may be expensive as you are in Belgium!)

You really can't go wrong, I would say not to go any nearer than 1 inch. But you can always do it a bit further away.

Go on do it... It will sound wonderful!

I'll be fitting it when I'm back in the UK, so will give them a call. But an inch from the weld sounds like a good starting point.

Cheers,

Tim

I was told 45mm

you don't say if it's a high-level, but I'd err towards a bit longer if it is, to save your boot heels from melting <grrrr>

Went for low level oval stainless model for the curvy as I still want to fit throw overs for longer trips.

So 25-45mm from the weld, any more bids?

I've just fitted my CCC, and it had the instructions folded up in the link pipe.

It does state 45mm.

Hope you enjoy the can, they sound flippin' great
