Us Spec Vance And Hines

Morning all
Just wondering if anyone with US V&H pipes fitted on a T120 could tell me whether it’s an easy job to remove the baffles?
Cheers

 

This was most definitely not an easy job.
Eventually got one circlip out and it sprung past my head with such force that it prompted me to put some safety specs on. The other ones ‘little welded tab’ wouldn’t come off at all. In the end I attacked it with pliers but ended up snapping one of the circlip eyes off, leaving me with even more of a problem to get it out. Once circlip free, one of the baffles refused to move at all and had to be knocked out from the other end of the exhaust which was awkward in the extreme.
Still, they’re all done now and will hopefully be fitted into the bike before next weekend.

 

Did the dealer have to do any kind of ECU reflash once the cat was out❓ Just out of interest, as it’s something I might consider in the future, which brand of X pipe did you use and how do you find it❓

 

Cheers for that Gaza. I’ve seen the YouTube vids and you’re right, they’re not for the faint hearted, but one day maybe if I’m feeling brave........

 

That’d be useful - thanks.

 

Cheers Gazza.

 

And here’s the bike with the finished product attached.
Man alive, does it sound good or what
I don’t know what the ‘standard’ V&H is like but I’d say if possible, try and get yourself a pair of these US ones and whip the bungs out - it’s well worth it
