Default Long poo poo pipe already has broke.

Despite being secured at two points on this muffler, the attachment point has broke. I emailed bicycle-engines.com to let them know it didn't last but a few weeks and I needed a replacement. Hopefully they will address the problem. AND I paid via Paypal, so that may help too. Sure sounded wicked without the muffler!

Do you have a picture of the broken section? Maybe it might be faster and less of a headache to just have someone weld it up.

Ok, Bicycle engines.com responded asking for a photo and my address last Tuesday. I've heard nothing since. However, I think something I could do is just make a baloney cut on the end, and then fashion a insert to muffle it down some. I have lots of fiberglass mat left over from my front fender repair... Whadda ya think?

It's so thin, I can't see it being worth it.

UPDATE... Bicycle motors.com is sending another out No Charge. These guys are top notch. That just got them another $50 sale from me, I'm ordering the deluxe carb kit... Can't go wrong with these guys in my book

Arrived today, better pipe too. Still thinking about using the broke one as a chopper style pipe. Just to mess around with.
