Exhaust Fitting Pt II
Right, got home last night. Attached exhaust. Getting hte neck brace on was a bit tricky. AS you can see i the picture I've attached the exhaust to the outside of the pillion's right rear foot peg. Wanted to get it on the inside but it was a bit too fiddly. Maybe once the neck brace has had time to shape to the exhaust.
.  The instructions said to cut the original exhaust 50mm from the weld join. I think that's too much. 45mm seems to be what other exhaust manufacturers have stated & that would get the new shiny bit (name escapes me) nearer to the weld. Just ridden my bike 5 miles & it sounds sweet with the baffle IN. Haven't tried it without. The exhaust is giving off a fully plasticy smell which I'm hoping is the silicon sealent. But apart from that it's all sweet. Can't stop revving at all teh red lights I stop at. Click me |

Why haven't you fitted the springs?
Why haven't you fitted the clamp? It looks pants on the outside of the pillion peg, fit it inside.

Figured that as I'm a bloke I didn't need to follow the instructions. Wondered what I was going to do with the spare bits. Will fix tomorrow when I'm back from my little jaunt. |
