He is definately not talking about Big Shots that is what I have on my bike and they do not come with caps, however you can buy slash-cut end caps or fishtail end caps to install but you do not have too and they don't come standard.
Don't know about the tips, but the locktite you need for the screw is the white "high temperature thread sealer". I used that on my Straight Shots to lock the baffle and hot-tips screws in. Regular locktite thread locker won;t work because of the heat (heat is used to break it free).
What if I ever want to take the screw out? Is there a way to break it free?
I haven't had to remove the screws myself, but I was told that it's not a thread locker in the same sense as the red or blue stuff. It holds, but it's not high strength, since high strength isn't needed to hold in baffles or end caps.
Ok, someone has to know...
I sent pics to V&H and now they are saying they don't know what I have but they aren't V&H.
They look like em, they have the stamp on the pipe, the baffles look like V&H..
All I want is to replace the missing cap.
HELP!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!![&:]
