Rigger Posted April 13, 2009 Share Posted April 13, 2009 Not so much a big motorbike as all you pro's are riding, but i have Peugeot Trekker 100 scooter.The problem is, i had to get a new exhaust fitted, me and my dad done it ourselves but we went wrong and didnt oil the piston and/or barrel so had to get a new one. When we put the exhaust on ourselves, were it connects to the engine, there was 2 pins for the pipe to fix to.Now that ive got it back, i noticed it was proper loud considering its got a new exhaust, so i had a look around an noticed tha the bottom pin were the exhaust connects isnt there. Are they replaceable and will it be alot of work just for that small thing?I cant be doing with riding round on the bike while its making the noise of a thousand bee's!Cheers Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cossie916 Posted April 13, 2009 Share Posted April 13, 2009 Is it a screw in lug, or welded in place and did it fall or get snapped off?Either way it shouldn't be that big a job, although I'm not familiar with the type of bike. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Posted April 13, 2009 Share Posted April 13, 2009 Its fixed down with a nut! Ill take a picture, its hard to explain send a picture, by the sounds of it you have a broken stud, and would need to remove the front of the exhaust, get a new stud and a stud extractor or if possible mole grips and remove and replace, putting the front pipe back on with the nuts.. picture will help me claify this Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Im going to go back the garage and complain, and ask for a new gasket! I have a bolt that fitsi would take the bike back to the garage and get them to fix it for free, after all you've paid once, otherwise a refund of costs and the gasket otherwise you've paid good money for nowt.it helps if the shops busy when you do this, no one likes bad publicity.....
