paysaw Posted July 31, 2010 #1 Posted July 31, 2010 Hi.Does anyone have a set of OEM mufflers for an 83 VR. I went on a ride today and my right side mufflers broke at the collector flang.If there is a fix, can anyone tell me? Thanks all Ray.

Venturous Randy Posted August 1, 2010 #3 Posted August 1, 2010 Are you sure it was the muffler or the collector that broke? I have seen this problem more with collectors than mufflers. RandyA
CdnDave77 Posted August 2, 2010 #4 Posted August 2, 2010 I have the original OEM's off my 83... replaced with a great set of MAC from Condor last year. If yer stuck, send me a PM... They aren't in great shape, but if you want 'em...

paysaw Posted August 4, 2010 Author #6 Posted August 4, 2010 Hi All.I checked and the muffler broke near the collector flang. I took it to a welder today and he says he can fix it.The bikes in pretty good shape and my pipes are mint.If he cant save it, I will put the word out and try to buy a pair from one of you kind people. I am abit pissed because I lent my bike to a guy to take a test ride on it last year and he popped a wheelie and it came down hard.I think thats what cracked the pipe. Make sure you dont lend your bike out to idiots....
paysaw Posted August 7, 2010 Author #7 Posted August 7, 2010 I picked up the pipe today.I hope it installs well.will keep you posted.
paysaw Posted August 7, 2010 Author #8 Posted August 7, 2010 I installed the fixed muffler today.My welder did a great job and you have to look hard to see the repair.I am putting on other pipes later..
