due to a couple of drops the can is shall we say looking a bit sad.
now its the original and has three bolts through a crome plate at the bottom end and I was contemplating undoing them and pulling off the can outer to reveal what?
I would expect some wadding, an inner baffel and thats it so then I can straighten the outer can and replace the wadding with fresh fibre glass and refit with a bit of gun gun to seal it.
there are six blind rivits either end of the can
I would like to drill them out and rotate the can 180 to get fresh metal on the outer face can you buy blind rivits and what kind of rivet gun do I need? I tried a breakers but the cans were either rubbish or inapropriate for my bike. any advice welcome
