Title: exhaust guard
Post by: daveb on November 26, 2011, 03:45:32 PM
washing the bike today and noticed the exhaust guard was loose, the screw on the underside had worn a large hole in the aluminium guard.

sorted it with a washer. Perhaps over xmas i should see about replacing it.

anyone else come across this problem....er....er.... i mean an opportuniuty to fit a modified sump guard.

your kidding me, a new one is £230 wtf item 22

My Tigger came with guard and bracket removed, but all three holes had been rattled bigger, I eventually got around to sorting it and managed to get a U bolt on the center pipe and hang the bracket of it.
I then drilled the holes out to get them round ish then got one the fitters to turn me down some ally bar that was a snug fit in the holes but with a flange to act like the washer if that makes sense?
Nothings moved since fitting :D
If you have trouble sorting it let me know and I`ll have a word :wink:
