Happy birthday dude have a few for me

I am the king of searches, do i get some kind of prize or something lol! I'm not inexperienced in things forum related because i'm a mod on http://www.vwt4forum.co.uk and i know how frustrating it is to see the same old questions being asked. Back to the subject anyway: I had thought about putting a...

Chain free play sould be between 30 to 40 mm
1& 1/8 inches to 1 & 1/2 inches

If i had that much freeplay on my chain it would be rubbing on the link pipe. I think i'm going to have to put a clamp on the link pipe to stop it wearing through.

Aparently they are the ones ART supplied for the Firestorm, the only problem i have with them is they are not very secure. They only hold on the friction of one bolt.

What do you think? Now the other cans are sold i can reveal that the full kit including the link pipes, brackets, clamps, hangers and DB killers cost the tiny sum of £90 including carriage, bargain me thinks! Now all i have to do is sort out the minor damage. I have ordered a new strap from A16 wit...

Put it like this, if i pust the pipe on it probably has a gap of just over 1mm all the way round and there is no way it would clamp up Rather than using goop (exhaust paste??) why don't you make a gasket around it and then clamp it. You can either buy some exhaust bandage from a car shop and make y...

I thought that might be the solution, i will probably goop it up tonight to make it gas tight at least. I just hope it all comes apart easy enough if i need to take them off again.

Pictures please! Having not seen the gap you speak of, I'd just put a bigger clamp on it... http://www.stagonset.co.uk/fasteners?cart_id=8314641_30190&prm_grp=HoseClip_Mikalor_Supra_W4&summit=Mikalor|Supra|W4|Hose|Clamps Put it like this, if i pust the pipe on it probably has a gap of just ...

Well a quick update for you: They arrived yesterday by courier at 6pm after i waited in all day for them but they arrived well packed and ready to go. As i was all excited i went outside and fitted them with nothing more than a head torch for light but with one minor problem; the left hand link pipe...

I can trace my hi level brackets and draw them up in a week or 2 if it helps..... Not to worry now mate, the guy managed to find all the fittings i need to install them on the bike, the brackets mount on the lower mounting on the pillion pegs where the low levels fix, i have never seen another stor...

I did ask the seller about swapping the cans but apparently there is a weld on the other side of the can so it cant be done. I must admit i will probably reverse the strap and just fit them as is. If i wanted to rub out the damage and polish them up can it be done and has anyone managed to do it?

Oh and has anyone got a any hanging brackets for said cans or maybe just a template to make a pair from?

I have just purchased some nice noisy cheap cans and high level link pipes for the Storm the problem is they have some minor damage as they were removed from a bike that was written off. They are Art Titanium with high level link pipes and my question is cans the marks be rubbed out through the grad...

I'm interested in doing this too. My SV was done by the previous owners and the wheels look ace.
