Hello all, I’ve got an ‘88, with Supertrapp exhaust, and the header has some road rash damage. It’s a flat spot, with a slight area that is worn through along on edge of the flat. Just enough to leak.
Questions, as I’ve been out of the Hawk game for a bit:
1 - is getting a replacement Supertrapp header a possibility? From what I’ve gathered, they are real hard to come by these days. What are the prospects?
2 - I’ve still got the stock header pipes in a box - yep. How different are they going to be than the Supertrapp headers, in regard to performance? And they would work with the ‘Trapp pipe, right?
3 - repair - anyone have experience with having this type of thing repaired? Anyone in the Denver area have any recommended shops?
thanks for any help! Pic of the damage attached. Pic of the bike is posted in the noob threads, under prodigal son post.
