Standard link pipes ?

Post by vtwin »

Hi, got my firestorm last week ( already posted in welcome forum ! )

It is fitted with high level Scorpion cans, but the previous owner had dropped the bike and the RH link pipe is badly flattened. I have phoned Scorpion and they dont seem very interested in supply a new pipe.

My question is can I fit the Scorpion cans with the standard low level pipes, the hanging brackets appear to line up, but I dont know if they will line up with the pipes.

Has any one got any they want to sell also ?

Thanks

cheapest i saw was a while ago on a site called bikem8 - worth a google. :thumbup:
can you not get the damaged one copied somewhere?
if you can, get 2 sets & i'll buy 1 off you

btw it was wemoto, not silvers! http://www.wemoto.com/bikes/Honda/VTR_1 ... -_SC36/01/

measure the diameter of the original link pipes - if they are 50mm the vipers will fit

To be fair Scorpion did say if I sent the old one to them they would try and match it up (although they probably wouldnt have one :? ) I just don't want to be without the bike, but if I can get some standard pipes at a good price I may as well send it back and see if they can help.

that looks like 2 right hand side link pipes to me - the left side is bent at the end.
i'll get a pic.

just to confuse you, the right one is on the left! :biggrin

those sit a bit higher than standard, with a 50mm diameter

id beware of that if i were you m8, ask for a pic of the actual items before you buy.
that's just one pipe.
you will need 2 :roll:

why dont you mail them and see if they can do the high level.... maybe they will do a deal if you let them use yours as a pattern...

Hmm, ad is a bit vague, good call :thumbup:

The title says 'pipe' but further down it says 'pair'

Ill call them up in the morning to find out.
