Best thing you can do with a stubby can is bin it.

isn't really a "stubby" like the 6 inchers iv seen around, it's just about 2 thirds of the size of the massive beer barrel that suzuki stick on there...

on the flipside of boredom, I've just bought an oval stubby can from beolwulf so im now looking for info on how to fit it as I'm totally clueless _

Dead easy mate, loads of threads on here.. I used a junior hacksaw , only took a few mins to saw through. Make sure you use something to protect the swingarm, block of wood worked for me..

You know nothing.

yeah, how come @ bin stubby cans?

He is Ogden, he hates SVs, stubby cans, slow riders and a whole host of other things. But somehow he is rather endearing and we all love him really

I'm rather bewildered by a can that requires the use of a saw to fit it.

Can't you just buy one that fits and bolts directly on to the existing link pipe? Or is that too logical?

the product name/title is "Stubby length" - the idea of sawing any mechanical component freaks me out (unless it's like a custom bike/trike/kit car etc)... I can see the appeal of stubbying the standard can since it could probably hold about 18 pints.

in this case i'll have to saw the existing link pipe and bolt the new can in place with a connection sleeve, asside from that it'll be purrfect (if i dont screw it up)

That's being a bit pedantic. I could have gone and bought a new ready made stubby can. Or I could have bought half a dozen rivets and done it myself.

Saved myself a hundred quid or so.
