Hi All,
Just fitted a new exhaust to my A10, it proved to be a bit of bitch to fit but thought I had got there in the end with a bit of tugging and pulling. However after a short run I noticed that the header pipes must not have sealed fully to the barrels as I had developed sooty deposits on both pipes where they join the engine. In an attempt to fix this I then took both exhausts off and tried a bit of exhaust muffer paste on each of them before refitting. The next day I again took the bike for a run only to find 10 miles down the road the exhaust pressure has blown a hole in the paste seal on one side.
1. Does anyone know if there is such a thing as a proper exhaust seal for A10 header pipes. I have seen on the interent the small bore copper washers for the Bantam header pipes and such like but as yet none for A10's?
2. If these don't exist, what does everyone else use to make sure their exhausts are airtight?
