sheerider11 Posted June 19, 2012 Report Share Posted June 19, 2012 How badly can that affect the bike?? It's my girlfriends bike and she doesn't really want to buy new exhaust is it isn't to bad. But it is worse then it looks in the pics. Its about half way into the pipe Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dirtydownunder Posted June 19, 2012 Report Share Posted June 19, 2012 its decent, id get it fixed next time you have the pipe off. its in the ok spot, you could heat it up and work it through the flange. \ bought it like that ? if not did she notice any difference in performance ?

Thanks. Got it like that. Just got it together and didn't see it till I put the pipes on. I got it as a pile of parts and never looked at the pipes, but like you said its in a decent spot that I can prob work it out. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wacko2000 Posted June 19, 2012 Report Share Posted June 19, 2012 The looks of it would bother me More than anything- doubt you'll feel anything as far as seat of pants goes! If its nothing bothering her just leave it alone! Prob more work than its worth trying to fix Joe Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sheerider11 Posted June 19, 2012 Author Report Share Posted June 19, 2012 you cud try filling the hole pipe with water caping it and freezing it neva tried it but heard it works If anything I was gonna try a dent puller with the stud welder. Nasty racing called me and made a good point, he said to see If it's holding any heat back Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nasty racing called me and made a good point, he said to see If it's holding any heat back That was my idea too make sure to heat the area after you weld the stud with a mapp gas torch till a light glow then pull on it lightly. Then quench it again( when your all done ) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
blacknyellow4mill Posted June 19, 2012 Report Share Posted June 19, 2012 yea the dent puller would work not everyone has one witch is y i suggested the water but if you have a puller i would deff go that route Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
