ree_ree Posted April 25, 2010 Report Share Posted April 25, 2010 well here it is...first trip to the dunes with my new (used) pipes and i hit a whoop while shifting to 3rd, my bike comes down i drop the clutch and give the bike hell with the gas......BAM i went from like 40mph to 0 in about 3 seconds....my back paddle caught my stinger on the cpi's and bent the whole pipe down under the tire and bent the mounting bracked attached to my foot peg. FUCK !!!!!!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

alcoholbanshee Posted April 25, 2010 Report Share Posted April 25, 2010 Contact CPI........they will fix it good as new. You will be very suprised how cheap it costs. They fixed a tacoed pipe for a buddy for just about nothing.......... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blewbyu Posted April 25, 2010 Report Share Posted April 25, 2010 Yup, they can fix that. Give them a call. I had a set that looked like that, and they look pretty fair after they fixed it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When Blewbyu bent his and he told me how fair CPI was with him it made me want to switch....I have pretty much always run shearer. Try and call Matt Shearer and see what you get when something like this happens...... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
