I had to mod the eBay exhaust I bought . the header was at such an angle that the shock was in the direct path of the the muffler. I cut the header flange that bolts to the head " about an inch up the header , and I repositioned it so the muffler was in the right position for the swingarm brackets . It secured to the swingarm the same way the stock muffler did.

With the P&P does anyone recommend an upjet or will I be fine running stock? Just ordered it today, so we'll see how fitment works out!

Dewd.. A UNI POD filter with that pipe and a 115 jet,,look out cappy,,you better hold on!!
In stock form it might be a little on the lean side since more air is moving out,,but if you dont match that air out with air in(UNI)then you should be ok,the A/F screw might take care of any slight leaning,,you may have to go up to a 110 if the A/F screw doesn't give you enough fuel, the A/F is pretty much just for the pilot jet if I remember correctly...but the best performance mod I ever did for my stock scoot was the UNI along with the pipe and a 115-118 jet,,man what a difference!!
I would get a 110,115,120 that way you can play around when and if you get a UNI...too me a free flow exhaust is worthless without a free flow air intake.Unless you just like a little more noise..lol

Cool man, thanks jerseyboy . I'm just gonna pick up a pack of jets anyway now so I have something else to play around with. Probably just gonna grab that UNI while I'm at it too. This exhaust falling off has become a good thing for the tinkerer in me.

Hahaha,,yeah 10-4!!
You might look into the little extension that they make for the UNI to route it through the hangar..
A lot of guys just mush the UNI through the hole in the hangar,,thats fine if you dont mind how it looks.
I have mine mounted inside my stock airbox,,it fit right in the hole perfect,,I drilled about 5x1\2"holes in the lid for the extra flow,,and when I put the lid on the UNI gets squeezed down about 1".It works awesome!!
The nice thing about a UNI is you can lose the bulky stock air box and snorkel giving you better access to everything in the engine compartment.
Im telling you though dewd,,you are going to be amazed at the difference..more fuel,,more air,,more power,,and noise..lol

This exhaust falling off has become a good thing for the tinkerer in me. Also,,had a question for you cap,, How do you like your JS4000 gopro clone? I was looking at those on ebay and they look sweet for the price,,your videos are really crisp too. I wanted one for doing some testing and riding videos when it warms up myself. Tom

I was looking at those on ebay and they look sweet for the price,,your videos are really crisp too. I wanted one for doing some testing and riding videos when it warms up myself. Tom My SJ4000 has been nothing but awesome since I've had it. Now, two disadvantages over a GoPro: 1) It doesn't actually record in 1080p 60fps like it advertises. It's actually 1080p 30fps with each frame doubled. 2) No mic jack. There are hacks for this though. But if that's not a concern for you then disregard. There's a ton of settings and it's pretty easy to figure out what's going to work best for you to get good picture quality PLUS all of the GoPro mounts work interchangeably with this camera AND it comes with something like a dozen mounts in the box. There's a new version of this cam available but it's perpetually sold out called the SJCAM SJ5000+ Ambarella(might not be spelled correct). That one shoots actual 1080p 60fps and I believe has 720p 120fps for super smooth slow mo. Nearly double the price of the SJ4000 though, so you start to creep in to "might as well buy a GoPro or a Drift" territory. Look for a dude named Techmoan on YouTube, he has the most comprehensive review and feature overview of this thing that I've ever found. He's working on one for the SJ5000+ Ambarella too. Bottom line, I would recommend this cam any day of the week. PS: BEWARE OF FAKES!! There are TONS of FAKE SJ4000's on Ebay (which is ironic, because technically they're fakes of a fake...). If you want to get one direct from the main importer of these things you can get one here: www.foxoffer.com/sj4000-full-hd-waterproof-action-helmet-camera-p-659.html?zenid=9dbbe4486b4b8e72cd449186794b52ec

Replacement exhaust arrived and fit like a charm. Just need to go grab some nuts and bolts to make the mounting bracket fit more snugly so I can get it done this weekend along with removing the air box and installing my pod filter. Video also posted in the original post with an update...for posterity. :-p

BTW-Is that a P&P,,I didn't see the stamp on it? I agree that it's definitely sounding a little lean. I'm holding off on installing the air filter until I get my jets just to play it safe. For now, do you reckon it's something I could remedy just by playing with the a/f screw (which I have yet to drill out access to)? This particular one has the P&P labeling on the swingarm facing side of the muffler rather than the outside, so it isn't really visible in the video.
