paysaw Posted July 31, 2010 Share #1 Posted July 31, 2010 Hi.Does anyone have a set of OEM mufflers for an 83 VR. I went on a ride today and my right side mufflers broke at the collector flang.If there is a fix, can anyone tell me? Thanks all Ray. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Venturous Randy Posted August 1, 2010 Share #3 Posted August 1, 2010 Are you sure it was the muffler or the collector that broke? I have seen this problem more with collectors than mufflers. RandyA Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CdnDave77 Posted August 2, 2010 Share #4 Posted August 2, 2010 I have the original OEM's off my 83... replaced with a great set of MAC from Condor last year. If yer stuck, send me a PM... They aren't in great shape, but if you want 'em... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

paysaw Posted August 4, 2010 Author Share #6 Posted August 4, 2010 Hi All.I checked and the muffler broke near the collector flang. I took it to a welder today and he says he can fix it.The bikes in pretty good shape and my pipes are mint.If he cant save it, I will put the word out and try to buy a pair from one of you kind people. I am abit pissed because I lent my bike to a guy to take a test ride on it last year and he popped a wheelie and it came down hard.I think thats what cracked the pipe. Make sure you dont lend your bike out to idiots.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
