Yoshimura muffler mounting

Post by Charlie Mullendore »

My project Paso has Yoshimura mufflers on it, but they do not appear to be mounted correctly. At some point a screw head on them has rubbed up against the swingarm leaving a gouge. :( The mounting bracket is currently on the inside of the passenger peg bracket/muffler hanger, should it be on the outside instead for more clearance?

Charlie,

the muffler bracket normally fits between the foot peg and the frame hanger. You can always pack the muffler bracket out a bit with some washers to give some extract clearance from the swing arm.
Just checked your web site, nice looking Convert! Had mine out on the weekend.
Cheers,

Fraser.

Same thing happened on my Paso. Agree with Fraser.
