No, this isn't another "I got the wrong year pipe" thread... that was my *original* issue...

I have just received the proper 07 pipe for my 07 Triple, but now a new problem has arisen. The bracket is installed behind the foot peg as instructed, but now when I go to mount the pipe it doesn't line up! If I allign the mounting bracket with the tab on the pipe, then the pipe doesn't reach the midpipe! Likewise, if I secure the pipe into the midpipe, then the brackets no longer line up! *** is going on now?

HELP!

apparently nobody is able to help. have you solved the prob yet? i would think the maker of this pipe would have things matched.
if not ,get an arrow and be done with it

My roomie and I just modded the bracket. Actually it was very easy, and now the pipe fits solid. Not to mention, it sounds like a demon

Pics included for those interested...

Before (barely in the midpipe, weird angle, scary loose)

Difference between actual mounting hole and where it needed to be

Making the changes

Oh I almost forgot the most important part. Sorry for the sideways video, my camera person was a little inexperienced

Close. I *am* from Vancouver, but I'm currently serving out my rookie pilot days in Canmore, AB. The edge of the Rockies, approx 1 hour from Calgary. Sick riding, when you find the right roads, but a short riding season, and it's easy to square off those Pilot Powers between here and Calgary

You aren't really riding with shorts on are you?

Thanks mom

but it was 22 degrees C and it was a rip up and down the cul-de-sac for the sole purpose of the video. So I think my Sidi boots and riding pants may have been overkill

22 deg Celsius? That's chilly! We have to wait until November to get that low here...
