Sos!!!
Cigar smoke works to detect exhaust leaks. Always use new gaskets, or you are gambling. I had to expand my crossover pipe to accept a new gasket. It was impossible to use the old one. Check just aft of the right header bracket to ensure the new header is not touching the frame anywhere. Retorque flange bolts after a couple of rides. Use silver antiseize where muffs clamp to header.
Well I took the bike out today for quick ride. Bike runs smoothly with no hiccups or decel popping. I will check the torque on everything tomorrow morning to make sure nothing rattled loose. I love the new sound of the bike and my right leg is alot happier now that its not on fire anymore. Now I just need to go put the damn chrome heat shields back on. Thanks again for all of the help.
