Header Wrap Question
06/01/10 at 22:40:19
 
Is it recommended that header pipe be removed before wrapping?  I am concerned about the muffler joint misaligning and it has good seal now, but prob will not if I remove the header pipe/muffler from bike to wrap.

It can be done with the pipe still on the bike, but it's a lot quicker and a lot easier to get a good, tight, consistent wrap with the header off. And you won't use as many epithets  Cheesy

Can you remove the whole exhaust in one piece? That way you wouldn't interrupt the muffler to head-pipe connection...

As H H said, I'm sure it can be done but better to take it off...
