MikeM8560 Posted December 5, 2008 Share #1 Posted December 5, 2008 tonight after a short ride downtown I noticed my right exhaust tip was turned off to one side. I turned it back and when I got home I couldnt see how its held on, didnt see a clamp to tighten it was a bit dark under there in the garage Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mtman Posted December 5, 2008 Share #2 Posted December 5, 2008 Suppose to have a couple springs to hold the tip on the muffler. Sounds like they rusted or broke and are MIA. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mtman Posted December 5, 2008 Share #4 Posted December 5, 2008 Mike... I did some checking. Apparently in the '86-93 XVZ1300, they did the turndown with springs as you see in the second pic. In the 83-85 XVZ1200, they did not have a turndown, as you see in the first pic. Not sure how they attached yours but I'll bet they tried to do something similar to the MkII.
