Hi all, does anyone know if you can get peg less rear hangers?

If so where from and how much?

Cheers Steve

Nooooooooooooo! I love her sooooooo much. Back in the day, when I was in the Army I used to wake up to her on Big Breakfast every day, it made each day special................ :D Good job I didn't know where she lived or i'd have 'storked' her!! :wink:

Anyway, those hangers look just the job, now gonna look how much they cost!!

I seriously doubt those are made of bent tubes. I seen similar product and it was simply metal rods bent to shape.
For this you do not need tube bender, you need literally 3X2 inox pieces (spacers?joints?) made on any simple lathe + long piece of inox rod + gas burner+regular stick welder, but invertor type if you want god welds on inox. And then polish.
Another variant if you have friend with TIG/MIG welder to get it made from alumiunium.
And finally you can simply design them in different way not requiring any bends and get them made from tubing. In this case you need hacksaw, patience and welder.
Really easy to make pieces, not worth 100 quid at all.
If you search for exhaust hangers custom made for streetfighters you will see lots of variants of that part.

Hi Mik

Really appreciate that, very good of you to look for me. I just had a look at them but the postage to UK is $45

So $70 for the hangers and $45 more to get them here. I was hoping to get something for £30 or there abouts.

Cheers Steve

Go on- indulge yerself.











Most welders are thoroughly nice blokes.
It's not falling off, it's an upgrade opportunity.
