Second the permatex ultra copper(be generous with it), don't forget to retorque after first ride and not a bad idea to rivet too. You don't want to lose one.
omg, its to late now wasnt real generous with the silicone and as far as the rivits, i was wondering bout that, dont have a rivit gun...grrrrrrrrrrrr and didnt get 1 of the claps on far enuff to rivit it...guess i need to start over ay
'
now sum1 has said dont use silicone. it will mess up 02 sensor...crap. is this true...help. i just redid it and add more silicone. \\; now im confused. and pulln my hair out.grrrrrr
I just pulled my slip ons off today, and put silicone on them. I couldn't find ultra copper, so I used "permatex sensor safe high temp gasket maker" They had 2 different high temp ones, but I got the "sensor safe" one to be on the safe side.
It doesn't take much, just a thin layer. I got them on, snugged the clamps, waited about 1/2 \\;hour, and then torqued them to 55 ft lbs. I didn't start the bike yet, going to let it fully cure first.
