hey thanks hope to hear back from him if he has any available, im new to the whole motorcycle exhaust but have worked on exhuast on trucks and rice rockets, is it hard to install or wat is really needed to, i read past posts, but still lil confused, seems no welding needed just cut fit and bolting?

pretty much...cut the mid pipe, slipon the flange with the new exhaust bolted on. it shouls be a tight fit. weld or clamp is optional.

thanks lol thats wat i thought, hope to hear back from srinath if he has ne

Too many threads about these Wileycos.   I have an 04F and wanted to put a can on. just want to verify that all I need is
1)The can (obviously)
2)Srinath's flange
All that is needed is a cut and it goes right on? No welding required

no welding needed.  Mine slipped on tight as a glove.  Great seal betwen the can and the flange, too.

Still havent received mine yet, was it sent off?? :dunno:

Yours was Postal ... anyday now ... 5-8 days I believe they said ...
Cool.

raylarrabee - if the OEM exhaust is cut off, does he supply the  pipe from the cut to the can? Maybe Flange-Master Srinath can bestow wisdom upon me!!!

Yes.  If my dog had not eaten the usb cable for my camera, I would take some pix for you.  The "flange" slips onto the cut in the midpipe, has a bend that mirrors the stock pipe, and then ends in a circular plate with 3 tabs that mate up to the mounting bolt holes on the exhaust.  I got a really good seal at both ends of the flange.

Try starting by cutting off less of the pipe than you think you need to.  Then test fit and see how much more you need to cut off.  You can always cut off more, but you can't make the midpipe longer if you cut off too much.

theres pics of it in the members bike gallery i believe

Hey Srinath,

Just got the flange today. The quality on this one is a hundred times better than the old one!! You must have someone else doing them now? Bends are nicer, no more big ass plate with hole blown threw it, welds are nicer, flange looks nice and flat. Just have to paint 'er and install.

Thanks for taking care of that...much better product now.

Yup ... The difference is I made 40 or so in 1 sitting ... so I had the means to tell the laser guy ... cut me this shape in that material ... and then walk into muffler shop and said make me 1 in this shape and if I like it ... we make 40 more just like it ... and then at the welders ... sat one weekend ... and had him get the setting up done etc and did them all without some clown draggin in a mini bike and some other moron bringing in a stair railing ... The oldies were like ... OK round things ... then we have to torch a hole in it ... and off set is better cos the damn muffler shop made weird shaped pipes that were just like stock ... I had to blow the hole big since it was anyway comming in crooked ... In essence yea completely different world ... but I should say ... you might have gotten particularly unlucky last run ... having gotten the worst of the lot ...  :x ... not intentionally ... but sorry anyway ... Literally 3 times better and in 1/2 the time ... and saved me a chunk of $$ and had much fewer losses ...
Cool.
Srinath.

OK Pics are in this thread ... thanks Davipu ...

Cut it where that pic says and fitted it looks like the one at the bottom ... yea 1/2 way down for cut pic ...
Cool.
Srinath.

Can anybody post a pic of what there bolt pattern is like on the can. Where my screws go in to the can, it is raised up. I don't know what your guys/girls look like so a pic would be great.

You're going to let your dog render your camera worthless?  C'mon, pony up for a card reader!  :lol:

From what I have gathered in other threads it is best to rejet when you change the air filter, and exhaust.

What if you just change the exhaust? will the bike really run that much diff without the jet kit?  Yes or no will sway my decision on what project for my 04F is next. Thanks.

Oh and I am not going to attempt to rejet myself. :x  Any volunteers???
