Jardine wiggle?
Hey all,
Since almost all the posts here regard tires or pipes I thought I would continue the trend with a quick question about my Jardine Highs.
I've got all the clamps and brackets tight but there is still a good bit of vibration and side to side movement when underway. Is this normal? I've never fitted aftermarket pipes before, but it just seems strange that they would move around at all.
I know the long rear bracket allows more movement than stock so this may just be the nature of the beast, eh?

Yep, the Jardine pipes do wiggle. Mainly die to the trick light weight cannister brakets.
If you ever watched the RC51 factory Jardine race pipes at any of the AMA races you will notice they also move around alot. I knid of think it is cool looking. Mine are the oval high pipes and i have had them on for nearly three years with zero problems, wiggle and all.
Turn thekey, hit the button and ride.......

I don't think you've done anything wrong. That seems to just be how they are. Mine wiggle too, one a little more so than the other. It doesn't seem to be in danger of falling off, and everything is tight, so I just ride...
