05bansh Posted March 17, 2005 Report Posted March 17, 2005 So was being a dumb ass and wrecked today at the dunes. Needless to say I bent my handlebars and my left knee came smashing down on my left pipe. Any one have any suggestions for removing the dent in my pipe? Quote
FlatTrackinIt55 Posted March 17, 2005 Report Posted March 17, 2005 ive always heard you should fill the pipe with water then plug the ends off and freeze it then when the water expands it will pop the dent out, how big is this dent?? i know someone posted a link on here awhile back about a website that you sent it to and they fixed it if its really that bad.

frocashmoney24 Posted March 17, 2005 Report Posted March 17, 2005 you can also block off one end, and fill it with compressed air, should pop it right out. if you go the water way, keep a close eye on it. Quote

You dent those it would of broke your leg. Quote

fastbanshee4u Posted March 17, 2005 Report Posted March 17, 2005 I'm so mad it has a dent in it! They are still brand new pipes! Maybe its a good thing I didnt have the Trinitys, they probably would have broke my knee! But if I cant get the dent out, It may be time for Trinity......or Rockets..... But hey, on the bright side, since I bent my factory handlebars, it was a good excuse to buy some renthal's! 340699[/snapback] I would like to see a dyno of Trinty vrs CPI . The only thing that scares me about trinity ,they say their pipes work on all motors and sizes. They may work but what set up do they work the best on. Quote

But back to the dent, how the hell am I going to get it out!? Its not a huge dent, probably 4 inches long, mabye 1/4- 1/8 inches deep. Quote

I'm sure they will work good with other motors, but it's really a crap shoot as to how good. I know they had a dyno comparison but it was with their stage 4 porting. They absolutely do not recommend cpi's for their stage 4 mx/tt or drag port work. Of course thier porting matches the stage 4 pipes. That's the benefit of having a porter that also builds pipes. You just can't find a better system that compliments each other than having some custom fabricated pipes for your motor. Quote
