"Another" new mufler

[gcarper_imp]

Please describe the installation.... Mid pipe, etc.

The new muffler is not an exact fit and the link pipe must be made to curve from the under pipe to line up with the muffler. Any good muffler shop will be able to do this or if you have access to a pipe bender you can make your own. A local shop here in Gaffney made connecting links for my Vstrom and XR1200. I would have had him do the CB but I had a curved link from the Delkevic can I'd ordered for the XR so used it. I lucked out in that the Delkevic link pipe had a bracket that lined up with the center stand stop. My friend that owns the shop where I purchased the luggage rack and the long reverse cone had suggested welding a strap from the center stand to contact the link or muffler to be the center stand stop. Glue a strip of rubber on so it wouldn't clang.

Looking at the pictures, it looks like this is not a straight bolt-on. An additional curved pipe is needed to connect the muffler to the stock head pipe (?).
