dtluke Posted February 13, 2013 Posted February 13, 2013 hi quick question will the dep pipe be the same fittings off a 2001 dtr to the dt125 re? looking to buy 1 now looks crisp and a good price so im hoping it will fit ok..thanks
Moderator Airhead Posted February 13, 2013 Moderator Posted February 13, 2013 no luck luke! one of the brackets is welded on at a different angle i'm sure
dtluke Posted March 4, 2013 Author Posted March 4, 2013 hi mate only just seen your reply for the question i asked.. would it be a big job if i was to weild the other bracket if it didnt fit and make it fit! would that work?
kenDAWG Posted March 4, 2013 Posted March 4, 2013 Which one of the mounts doesn't line up? I think if its either one of the points before and after the expansion chamber it will be alright but if your talking a couple of points altogether its a no no unless you can cut out some stainless tabs with a dremel and drill in a couple of holes?? One of Mine doesn't line up the one after the expansion chamber (heading to the endcan) and with all the other mounting points tightened up the whole system is solid so it doesn't worry me Ken
Moderator Airhead Posted March 4, 2013 Moderator Posted March 4, 2013 it's the mount after the expansion chamber thats different
kenDAWG Posted March 4, 2013 Posted March 4, 2013 Is it the one just before the break in the exhaust before the silencer fits in?
Moderator Airhead Posted March 4, 2013 Moderator Posted March 4, 2013 yeah it's that one Ken iirc, It's horizontal on the RE and vertical (underneath) on the R
kenDAWG Posted March 4, 2013 Posted March 4, 2013 Honestly I don't think it should cause any concern as the expansion chamber is attached to the exhaust port then there is a lug just before the exhaust makes its way round from the front of the bike and its ridgid as hell... Once the end can is in and bolted up the whole system is solid, no give on mine! Ken
