Re: Talk to me about exhausts - Freza - 27-02-15
In 2004 I bought Arrow exhaust, paid it €300, if I remember correctly.
It gives a nice deep sound at idle, camera phone video doesn't do justice:

Hi, so my new exhaust arrived today. Very exciting... However, having undone the bolts on the OEM one, it's still very much stuck. Not too surprising given its been on there for 15 years, but I wondered if there was a nack to getting them off, short of wiggling it about for hours on end?
Any advice from those who've done it before would be great

grab the exhaust and twist it as best you can, better with someone holding the downpipes to stop them breaking.

Spray some wd40 where exhaust and downpipes touch.

Well it's slowly feeling like there is some progress. I'm now at a stage where I'm having to scrape out a load of silvery crap from the join. I'm assuming this is sealant from before? Anyway, keep soaking it in wd40 and trying to twist it. Hopefully there will be some progress tonight, otherwise, I recently joined the Oval Motorcycle garage where you can book in to do work and a mechanic will help, so maybe i'll pop there sat morning and get some assistance.. .Just want the new exhaust on now!!

Well, here she is with the exhaust fitted
Really pleased with it, not intrusive but has a much nicer tone than the standard can... looking forward to taking the baffle out
