Hi Everyone
I recently bought an 03 XB9S and am new to the forum. The previous owner had a Jardine on the bike and then swapped it out for a rigged straight pipe welded directly to the header right before I bought it. The exhaust is stupid loud and I believe the performance has suffered.
One of my friends is a skilled welder and is going to help me chop off the rigged pipe right at the weld to the header and fab up a new setup using a Magnaflow 1148 and stainless pipe. The issue I'm having is that the previous owner didn't have the old rear exhaust mount and the only thing on there currently is the Jardine bracket. I want to fab up a rear mounting bracket that will be very secure and safe. Does anyone have ideas or suggestions?
Thanks for the help and let me know if I need to add any pictures of the current setup.
