    Exhaust missing pieces?

    Okay boys and girls. I bought a used 4 into 2 exhaust system from the local junk yard the other day. Went to toss em on and the two outer cylinder barckets (which cant be removed without cutting the exhaust) bolt up fine to the block BUT cylinder 2 and 3 seem to be missing some kind of flange or something. They fit well into the block but the bracket will simply slide right over them without any resistance.

    Im obviously missing some kind of adapter or something for these two cylinders. Anyone have pictures so i can make some or better yet have a resource where i can buy em at a fair price?


    Thanks again.

      What you need is 4 of #7 on the muffler page for your bike, 2 per pipe. http://www.alpha-sports.com/suzuki_parts.htm
      They go between the clamp and the lip on pipe, it can be a real fiddle to have them stay in place while you put exhaust in. I found putting them in place so that the space between them is at the top and then hold them together with a piece of masking tape, kind of like a clam shell affect, then assemble the pipe. The tape will burn off first time the bike is ridden.
