What was supposed to be joy quickly turned to dismay! Treated myself to some Delkevic end pipes off of eBay,second hand but as new condition,as described they safely turned up & were genuinely as new. Took the old ones off & my heart sank,the down pipes were rotted through,as the old original cans were took off,the down pipes where the end cans were secured just crumbled away! So more expensive but in the long run thought the best way forward was to order a brand new set of Delkevic down pipes,they arrived yesterday the day after purchased,top marks for customer service. Anyway read through the Haynes manual with regards to taking the original down pipes off,doesn’t seem too daunting (done manifolds on cars before but never on a bike) my real worry is snapping off a bolt at the flange. Do I leave it to a garage to do it or give it a go myself? Thinking soaking the bolts with penetrating oil over a day or so then trying to remove them then,here lies my dilemma,is that the way forward? Anybody done the job themselves & has got some advice please?
