Guys,
I bought a pair of sexy Spark carbon cans for my '97 CR from Motowheels. They aren't Termis or SIL's but they fit my budget. Sadly they don't seem to fit my bike. Removing the stock silencers wasn't that easy either. This is a year where there is no clamp fitted where the silencer connects to the down pipes. They just slide in snugly and between an inner sleeve and the flared outer tube. I needed a pipe wrench to remove one of them but finally got them both off. However, the inside circumference of the new silencers is just slightly too small to fit over the inner sleeve. Is this common? Is there a technique or trick? I "lubed" pipes with dish soap but still couldn't get more than a few millimeters on the sleeve. I don't have a torch but could get one if heating the new pipe would help. Thanks in advance!
