Centre Box Top Bracket

Recommended Posts

The top bracket which attaches the exhaust to the frame at the front of the bike keeps breaking, even after welding. it is simply just cracking along each bend and coming apart. it is quite sturdy in the bike but it is quite annoying having to weld it all the time. Does anyone have any tips on how to give it a bit of strength, beefing up the bracket etc...

i would attach a picture but i don't know how!!!

any help will be greatly appreciated.

Hi there,

I'm not too sure what part of the exhaust system you are referring to.

Do you mean the middle silencer box, top bracket?

Whatever bracket it is, it is most likely cracking due to being stressed in the bolted up position. Fit up the silencer to the frame and see if all the mounting holes line up without being forced into position, if not lining up correctly, then file/drill or bend till the bracket holes all line up.

Bye, PeterB.
