MikeNick Posted March 5, 2009 Report Posted March 5, 2009 You guys think either of these will work for connecting the stinger and main pipe together...???? Discuss... http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/12-1-1-4-th...sQ5fAccessories http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/_Car-Truck-...%3A1|240%3A1318 Quote
SAVAGE420 Posted March 5, 2009 Report Posted March 5, 2009 (edited) If your cheep and don't want to run the shit stock rubber connectors or fork out for some nice billet ones, go and grab a piece of flextral hydraulic hose with the steel braided core or alike and cut to length . Think it's 5/8. Will work the best. Edited March 5, 2009 by savage420 Quote
MikeNick Posted March 5, 2009 Author Report Posted March 5, 2009 I have some billet ones but I could never get them on so I took the rubber inserts out and used them with hose clamps, well they finally burned up and now I need somethin to temp. fix them until I can get a good set of RIS ones..One's I got said on ebay they fit almost everything...lol...Not my T-5's Quote
SAVAGE420 Posted March 5, 2009 Report Posted March 5, 2009 (edited) Well why cant you get them on? Are they the cascade ones like i have? Just lube the fuck outa them with pre mix inside and out all around and they will slide on like butter. Make sure you put them on the stinger side first and its easier with them off the bike AND the billet part OFF too. Then once there on, feed the stingers back through the frame and into place. Then tube up the inside of the hose and clamp again and the front pipe where they will connect and they will go in easy as you know what..... So easy a cave man can do it! GO DO IT!

MikeNick Posted March 5, 2009 Author Report Posted March 5, 2009 I have the clamps but need the inserts...The ones I have are like these.. http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/YAMAHA-BANS...sQ5fAccessories Like I said I need new inserts for these....The ones that came with them were way too small..There was no fuckin way they were squeezin up on those pipes.I even used a dremel on them to no avail...Finally took them out and used the rubber inserts with hose clamps until now that they burnt in 2..

That's similar to what i have, went on easy with LOTS OF LUBE. If yours rubber part is fucked get the hydro hose i said above, works great and lasts for a long time :thumbsup: Quote
