So there is an exhaust hanger on my 2013 Evo that appears to be made out of very thin steel. It is the one in front of the flapper valve. I am not certain why this particular piece of metal offends me but it does. Somehow it seems quite cheap inexpensive. It is also a part that could be readily made by anyone with a bit of CnC knowledge. That being someone other than myself of course......
Thoughts, ideas, I need one.

Are you talking about the evo-tech hanger you bought?

No the exhaust hanger under the bike. It is s tiny thin stamped metal bracket. Looks like it would rust away given a cup of water.

if you are referring to the bracket which supports the pipe via a couple of vibration isolator pads I can think of two options. The first is to replicate it with an aluminum billet chunk. An easier option is to remove, clean, prep and paint it satin black or silver.
Personally, I find the flapper housing much more offensive.

Why are you afraid? Don't Like it? Lose it! What part of CA? You need/want 696 midpipe...I have 696 midpipe. Coincidentally, I think it has your name on it. your problems have been solved. |

Raux, that's what I thought. There have been a couple of threads regarding some welding Evo mid pipes. Hmm another aftermarket opportunity?

^^^ Yeah what he said!^^^ Make sure it has the same finish though! Tell ya, I am tempted to go to a local fabricator and make a slew of them......... Sadly I am way to involved in getting the worlds first offshore aircraft carrier for launching and landing hot air balloons through USCG approval.....
