Title: Norge 8V Small Exhaust leak
Post by: tonga2 on April 03, 2015, 04:25:20 PM

Did a quick look around while starting the bike and noticed a small leak coming from the ypipe/canister.

I plan to get a Y-Pipe from either guzzitech or agostini but not right now as I don't have the funds.

My question is which sealer should I use? The Permatex High Temperature Red RTV Silicone Gasket Maker or the Permatex Muffler/Tailpipe Sealer?

Here's a closer look

Weld it or braze it.

mine did that, we had a muffler shop weld it. It is stainless steel, cost about $40 for the weld.

If its under warranty make them fix it. Would come under the emissions warranty which is longer than the regular warranty.

Money is money unless it is a far trip to the dealer.

Emissions warranty?
Hmm I'll have to ask my dealer about that didn't think to ask since I think my regular 2 years is up.
