OK welder got in, and got 20 made, we only had 20 pipe pieces, have 7 more rounds though ... so 7 more will be made ...
If I forget please make a note of these things ...
The header pipe should be cut plenty longish ... 4+ inches ...
On a 01+ ... I ll spread the slider part ... but if it doesn't fit ... a muffler shop will be able to spread it just fine ...
If you think its a bit loose, put a muffler clamp on it. My header pipe has too much wear, I dunno if its tight or loose anymore ...
More to come ... I'll send it in a day or 2 ...
Cool.

OK I had an idea ...
I'll make a insert ... if its 89-00 use the insert, if not dont ... if you hack it too short well maybe get it welded or clamped tight etc ...
The info here isn't for all production runs ... man no 2 of these damn things are identical ... Heck one guy got one which was so far frocked up ... he had a hole big enough to stick his little finger through between flange and can ... nuts ...
But anyway we will figure somehting for you ... You're so special ...  :laugh:  :laugh:  :laugh:
Cool.

awesome, now my bike can sound like a real one soon!  :o

The Buddha

I'll check in a bit ...
BTW I may have more than the 27 I am making ... OK maybe not ... but certainly seems like it.
I'll post instructions on this page in a bit. I think that insert idea will be the best. Watch for pics.
Cool.

OK please tell me ... no one bought a 4 bolt can ...
That link I posted now has a couple of 4 bolters ... That wont fit my flange ... OK you'll have to drill then it will fit ... not too hard ... but straight on ... no.
Cool.

Aaah ... you got an 89-00 header you're fitting on an 01+ and those are already cut ... not a problem ... I got the pipe for ya ... you'd be fine ...  O0 ... trust me  :laugh: ... If you are fitting it on the 02 with its headers you'd be trouble ... BTW if anyone wants to get the flange located and tacked or welded, no matter what it will work ...
Just slip fitting on an 01+ is a wee bit more tricky ... cos the blooming 01 head pipe is 2 different diameters where they connect up. I am spreading it to slide over the larger pipe, and you leave a good bit of that pipe (3 inches or so) intact, and then slide them on ... then you can trim your header for a better, tighter fit.
Cool.
Srinath.

A common mistake that people make when trying to design something completely foolproof, is to underestimate the ingenuity of complete fools....

Thanks to advances in automation, Nike shoes will be made by robots. Unfortunately, the robots will be made by children in Malaysia.
