oof pipe connecters

[kawiking]

i have a set of cpi oof's that im going to try and run on my cub... but i dont have the brackets to mount them up to the pegs..

 

what can i make them out of ,or can u buy them ??

i made some last year and they broke the welds on the pipe.

[njbanshee]

i'd like to know the answere to that one too?

[badassbanshee479]

last year I put a piece of rubber between the pipe mount and the peg.

 

this year I just double nutted the bolt and left it alittle loose so the pipe can move and not break the mount.

You always want to use some kind of rubber mount. I have busted both aluminum and steel mounts. Metal Tech offers a nice rubber pipe mount for $18.00 each.

 

And if your pipe mounts do not line up properly with your foot pegs, go buy some 1"x1/8" Flat bar and cut it to the length needed. Drill 2 holes and a quick paint job. You could de it with aluminum and polish it...but I keep finding the aluminum to end up cracking.

I use stock front pipe hangers, angle them as neccesary.

On my CPIs, they stick out quite a bit...so, I measured the gap, cut a piece of copper tubing, put a washer on either end, long bolt and lock nut. Rubber is key...it's gotta have flex.

I used 1/4" flat steel, bent it as needed to make the pipes line up and drilled two holes in each brace, and used two rubber grommets on each bolt for cushion.

 

If you look at the inside of the pipes you can see the little brackets

I did stuff similiar to travis. Used aluminum strap to the footpeg, with rubber on both ends where they mount for cushion. worked really well... Mine were both out one side though so I only had to have one. RDZ has a really good rubber mount Rob sends with the pipes for the mount too...

i need to fig. something out, i e-mailed cpi and they said they sell just the brackets for $28.i do need some good rubber mounts for sure. i love the sound of oof's.... !!!

Oh yea.... but I left the hangers on the CPI pipes. I'll be running the Shearers for sand/strip. I only put the CPI on because I didn't want a metal stud to chew through my nice Chrome Shearers.

My RDZ mount didn't work..I couldn't get it to line up. I'm running all of mine without any rubber support..no problems so far, but haven't ridden any of then much.
