Title: Which end to start when fitting Motad system
Post by: McCabe-Thiele (Ted) on January 15, 2022, 07:08:23 PM: Sorry it's a basic question obvious to many but....
Do I attach the silencer to the bracket loosely first then the front pipes or start with the front pipes the attach the silencer? At what point to I tighten the front pipe clamps to the head?

It can lead to minor amusement, which can’t be a bad thing.
