CB400 frame/exhaust question
« on: May 01, 2013, 09:40:10 AM »
Hi All,
Fitting an exhaust to the 400 and the silencer bracket seems to be the wrong shape. It is possible that the frame loop that the exhaust bracket mounts to is slightly bent. Any cahnce of a picture of the bottom loop? Or even better how the silencer/bracket/loop attach. (in case i am doing something silly)
Thanks

Thanks Steve,
It all makes sense now. The frame that I have has a mounting bracket welded to the loop and have found that the silencer bolts directly to it. Bracket is obviously superflous.
Cheers
Seamus
