Hello all,
I'm looking to remove/replace my OEM exhaust can with something lighter, and then mount it in a lower position.
I checked/read lots of aftermarket exhaust can information on the site, but didn't find anything pertaining to what I'd like to do.
So I thought I'd ask the collective: Have any of you lowered your Stelvio exhaust can position?
As it sits, the exhaust exits above the pannier rack mount, and I'd like for it to exit BELOW the pannier rack mount.
If you've done this modification, please tell me about what you did, what you learned, what exhaust can you used, etc.
Here's WHY I'd like to do this:
I've currently got the SW Motech mounts with Micatech boxes fitted.
I've fabbed up a few aluminum plates to fit on the "inside" of the pannier mounts as carriers for tool tubes. (they're plenty strong and WAY lighter than the stainless steel ones) Ideally I'd like to mount an aluminum tool box on BOTH of the pannier mounts. That's why I'd like to lower the exhaust, as it's now in the way of the left tool box. If I can do this, then I can carry my full tool kit, tire pump, tire plugging kit, battery rescue pack, a few spare parts, zip ties, tape, etc. ALL in the tool boxes .......... and NOT have to off-road ride the bike with the panniers mounted.
Thanks for any help or advice.
