I just bought a set of true duals from a forum member. There is a tension spring connected to the rear heat shield of the rear cylinder? Where or what does it connect too. He does not answer his phone right now. Just in in a hurry right now, weather too good not to ride.

Is there not a small hole in one of the header flanges?

Yes there is a small hole in the heat shield where the spring goes. Did not know that. TheMouth is how I bought the pipes from, called me back and informed me of the small hole. Everything is good now. Thanks Dirtdobber.

Glad you got them installed. I was in the garage messing with my bike when you called. Lost one of those damn exhaust flange nuts and they are a funky thread...still didn't finish my bike. I did finish a 12er of PBR though

Thanks MGS, I'll keep that #, but don't see any future probs. These pipes are bullet proof. Very well made on fit and finish.
