First impressions

Post by widster »

Right, i've had a look at my exhaust. First impressions, very well wrapped! Finally got all the plastic tape and bubble wrap off it. I am no expert but i would say that it seems well made. Heavier than i expected but i suppose that is comparing it to the old one which was a bit rotten and mild steel. The welds all seem solid and relatively tidy. There are 2 or 3 v.small brown weld dots on the silencer. There are a few scratches on the silencer and one v.small dent (it is quite small, about half an inch) but i suppose this is likely in transit or when being made. Overall, i am happy. Just need to work out how to fix it all together and put it on now!

I know what you mean! Mine seem to be ok but something like this is quite annoying. On a (hopefully) more positive note, what do you think about the quality of the exhaust? Does yours have any scratches?

yea its pretty good, only got one scuff on the backbox, looks like a 5 year old has used a pin and scratched away, but you cant see it once its on as its on the underside. otherwise there are a couple of weld dots which is normal.

packaged very well, i did insist he wait till i checked it, he tried the "just sign it unchecked" but the actually wrapping says check it before signing.

yea im happy overall, as for the slight differance in lengh....blah! when im at 7k rpm with a smile on my face i wont care about such a minor thing!

thanks jamie :thumleft:

Is there a warranty with these exhausts? Mine had no paperwork at all with it, only a note with my address on.

I would like a receipt for the records too.
