Title: Eldorado exhaust clamp question?
Post by: Farmer Dan on June 21, 2016, 07:11:52 PM

Just where on the frame does the half clamp go that locks the header pipe to the frame?  I don't think it's exact location is to critical but I thought I'd better ask.  Can't find any pictures of a bike that has them?

Wherever they fit best.

Dan,  if you have a civilian sidestand, make sure the clamp on the left is in front of the sidestand.
Behind the sidestand can hinder retraction.

Thanks everyone.  Clamps will be here Thursday, now I have a good idea where to put them.
