playboy Posted July 29, 2012 Share #1 Posted July 29, 2012 Got started on servicing the swingarm today and when I removed the Y pipe one end just slipped off without loosening the clamp. Looked in service Manual for a part number but didn't find any listed or shown pg 3-32 . Discovered this after removing the exhaust bolts at the head on one side and then realized that it wasn't necessary. Also found a pin hole which I should be able to weld up. Been having a little bit of popping now and then so now is the time to get the exhaust tightened up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jonesboy Posted July 30, 2012 Share #3 Posted July 30, 2012 What was the question???? A pin hole will cause some poping on decel, but these bikes are prone to poping.... So, did I stump you with an answer?? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
playboy Posted July 30, 2012 Author Share #4 Posted July 30, 2012 :think: LOL what I need or think I need is some new gaskets for the Y- Pipe. the ones that fit inside the pipe or maybe there called something else. There made of a soft heat resistant material. Back in the day it would probably have been Asbestos. Cant find a part number or listing for them in the manual or parts lists. Probably have to call the dealer Tomorrow when they open. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
