Title: A solution to the crooked Termignoni cans. Post by: Uncle Mofo on August 13, 2010, 12:51:19 AM While I was doing my tail chop and cans chop, I asked my friend Troy who was helping me and made me the tail chop bracket. If he could find a way to get the cans straight.
Here is what he came up with. Having a water jet cutter at his disposal helped too.

Post by: Bill in OKC on August 13, 2010, 09:42:19 PM Nice nice nice - Now why couldn't Termi do that? They need to hire you.
Title: Re: A solution to the crooked Termignoni cans. Post by: psycledelic on August 14, 2010, 01:23:22 AM Looks very good. Having the equipment sure helps. I couldn't do that with my Dremel tool.

I managed to get mine vertical but every time someone (else...I don't do that) changes a wheel I have to fix the exhaust myself. Lots of fiddling. I think not too distant in my RS's future is a symmetrical either side exhaust. Title: Re: A solution to the crooked Termignoni cans. Post by: Uncle Mofo on August 16, 2010, 04:47:15 PM niiiice. If you guys want I can ask my friend to cut more brackets, I'm not sure if or how much he would charge. He saved the info on his cad program and he makes stuff like that for the Multistrada owners. Tailchop kits, skid plates, guards. All in stainless steel. I managed to get mine vertical but every time someone (else...I don't do that) changes a wheel I have to fix the exhaust myself.

Post by: brad black on September 29, 2010, 02:14:27 AM a 10mm or so spacer between the brackets from upper to lower usually fixes them too.
