Moderator drewpy Posted May 9, 2012 Moderator Posted May 9, 2012 what's the problem? best smell around
spurs59 Posted May 9, 2012 Author Posted May 9, 2012 what's the problem? best smell around not when your clothes are stinking of it its not
spurs59 Posted May 9, 2012 Author Posted May 9, 2012 Par for the course un fortunately. will a different end can sort the problem?
Tommy10bikes Posted May 9, 2012 Posted May 9, 2012 No technical help but it may solve the problem in the time being. http://www.whitedogbikes.com/item--Rock-Oil-Strawberry-Scented-2-Stroke-Oil-1-Litre--rock-oil-strawberry-2.html TTB
Sacha Posted May 9, 2012 Posted May 9, 2012 Holy sheit! That's for real?! I figured now that I'm going to work smelling of exhaust I'll save a ton of money not buying perfume.
spurs59 Posted May 9, 2012 Author Posted May 9, 2012 Its a 2 stroke, its pretty unavoidable im afraid. why did i not have this problem with the standard exhaust fitted.i did not have the problem with the cagiva mito,thats prob because the end can is lower down on the bike
Moderator Airhead Posted May 9, 2012 Moderator Posted May 9, 2012 is the rubber joint between the exhaust and silencer leaking?
spurs59 Posted May 9, 2012 Author Posted May 9, 2012 is the rubber joint between the exhaust and silencer leaking? i cannot remember if there was one when the standard exhaust was on the bike but there was not when the bike shop fitted the dep exhaust.i noticed that once the dep exhaust was fitted that oil was leaking from where it joined the end can has it did not marrie up correctly,i has to put some gum gum round it and then a piece of rubber tubing held in place with two jubilee clips
Moderator Airhead Posted May 9, 2012 Moderator Posted May 9, 2012 thats your problem then, get a rubber joint fitted, easily bought from fleabay
spurs59 Posted May 9, 2012 Author Posted May 9, 2012 thats your problem then, get a rubber joint fitted, easily bought from fleabay i would imagine this would work has i have it now?
Moderator Cynic Posted May 10, 2012 Moderator Posted May 10, 2012 You want to try the TDR, 2 pipes high up you stink to high heaven. You can tell which is the truck i usually use at work from the 'aroma' of burnt 2 stroke. My rucksac is probably watertight now Your old pipe probably had a smaller outlet pointing down which means the worst of the fumes will get caught in the air under the bike maybe, but that costs HP.

Ryan09 Posted May 10, 2012 Posted May 10, 2012 It may be its because the dep doesnt have a spout so the fumes arnt being directed whereas the standard one does and the one on your mito most likely did to. My bike gear always smelt of 2 stroke, i eventually got used to it.

Ryan09 Posted May 10, 2012 Posted May 10, 2012 Im pretty sure the standard dtx and dt re have spouts on the cans.Google it.
