Sounds like a wrenching mishap. I'm trying to figure out exactly how this could even with the number of bolts on the exhaust. He must of had it only held on by the head bolts or it was rusted all to crap. Crazy!
i thought i saw some pipes on ebay once that didnt have any brackets and were held on by just the bolts going into the head.....they were pretty cheap.....maybe he had a set.
I saw a couple on an Electra-Glide yesterday whose rear disc had locked up. The guy at the gas station across the street was bringing a wrench. Frankly, I thought careful application of WD-40 would be better.
This poor "exhausted" guy must have had fun getting his pipes home... wonder if he just pitched 'em?
