I NEED HELP (TWO BROS EXHAUSTS SLIP ON ARE THESE PICTURES NORMAL)?
 

The low mount pipes I believe are too big, even with clamp tighten all the way down the pipe still can move. There is a gap in the clamp area if you look closely (enlarge the pic). Is this normal for slip ons? Or Two Bros low mount pipes defective? As you can see I changed the position of the clamps twice and it did not help. Open for comments or suggestions.:confused::confused::confused::confuse d::confused::confused::confused:

I believe you are missing the exhaust gaskets. It would be best to buy new parts from the dealer...Hawkrider can produce the correct part number for the BEST fitting gaskets. OR you can remove the gaskets from the old mufflers (carefully) and then reuse them on the new pipes. If you go with the recycle method, the fit will not be as good and you will most likely have small leaks.

the oe gaskets are also slightly small od, someone just posted the ones that fit. i used the oe gaskets with some copper-filled rtv silicone and all is well. if i remember even they were a bitch to install.

What store to buy the OE gaskets? Is this an easy fix? Is there a web site to purchase one?

What he said... :) Good experience with ron ayers. Cheaper than the dealer on oem parts, especially the more expensive stuff. Also fast shipping. Some slip ons don't use them and others do.

So what would be a good fix for the problem? I could not find the oem part on the web site. Open for more suggestions........

did you click the link Skokie posted? It takes you right to the Honda part number...

I went to the Honda Motorcycle Dealer today and the mechanic said that the OE gasket would not work b/c it only comes up to the ring on the pipe. Look at the pictures and you will see the ring/bump on the pipe. The slip on pipes are bigger than the original standard. Is this normal to have a gap even with the clamp tighten all the way down. Open for more suggestions.

I had to use some header wrap to get rid of the gap there. It worked well and is still on.

If its any help, I just measured my new OEM gaskets. They are 1.903" OD. Plus or minus a few thou ".

I am not the mechanic but is the header wrap a type of tape that is heat resistant? Could I buy it at Meijer or Auto Zone.
At the Honda Motocycle Dealer the OEM gasket only fits up to the ring on the pipe but the slip on pipes goes over the ring (see pictures above). Open for more suggestions.....................any one.

yes

Somebody gave you the wrong clamps. Go to a hardware store and buy slightly smaller ones. Don't know why, but my V & H pipes came with the wrong ones too.

So you believe that the clamps are the problem. I will get different clamp but these are the clamps from Two Bros. What if the diameter of the pipes are too big or is this common with all slip ons. Look at the pictures the teeth on the pipe is not closing/getting closer when the clamp is tightening.
I also bought some header wrap tape from Auto Zone not cheap (wow). So I will buy some new clamps first before I try the tape...................open for any more ideas/comments............Thxs...for...all...comments... .............

The Honda exhaust spacers are missing. This can be especially problematic because the lower one is within centimeters of your rear tire. These are cheap and gotta be there. There just like the old fashion exhaust donuts between the manifold and the header. These are a little different shape but they do the same thing.
