G2 off side exhaust bracket

Post by Richard Hyatt »

Hi all,
Just a query please as I'm going through this acquisition!
Where the silencer picks up the bracket on the off side, the drilled lug at the end of the outigger arm seems to be twisted round a shade.
It does not look as if someone has been off the bike , it looks quite standard and no obvious deformation to the outigger arm.
Are they all rotated off vertical a shade please ?
I'll try and put a picture

Not sure what you want to see, perhaps this pic may help. It is from my 66 G2CSR My 58 G2 was more difficult to get to, but it appears the arms are the same. Silencer shape does differ 66 having long cigar shape.

Just had a look at my spare 350 one and there is an approx 30 degree twist in the fixing point in relation to the arm
