keda rt3 adjustment

[1badtitan90]

Ever since I got my keda I loved it. But it just looked out of place. It looks as if it hangs too low and there is too much of a gap between the exhaust and the bottom of the motor.. so today I had some time to adjust it.. I got it up a lot further by drilling new holes in the hanger bracket.. it is closer by atleast 1/2 and inch..

What kind of stands are those?

 

[1badtitan90]

They are psr. They need to be tweeked a bit to use with the buells... the swingarm is very wide. and the front in order to remove the front axle you need to pound the bar down and smooth it out.. decent stands for around 120 for both

Thanks for the info, need to grab a pair, or at least one this year before I out the bike away. Easier to work on it for sure.

Won't that put more stress on the headers, and engine studs, pulling the front mounts toward the rear?

The pipe itself has a decent range of movement/adjustment, but the bracket only allows for about 1/2" or so. I use the same bracket for the RT-3 and 4, so it had to be a universal fit or close enough to work with both. I found out the hard way that my bike and others may be a little different, that's why the stock muffler mount points are slotted. None of the stock headers are exactly the same, there's more than 1/2" of adjustment on the stock muffler.

There is no extra stress on the header or studs.. as d Adams said there is movement
