    Muffler re-sleeve

    Hey all. My can is scraped to hell from where the previous owner dropped it. Apparently you can get new stainless outer sleeves put on damaged mufflers.
    Can anyone tell me where i can get this done in the Auckland, preferably Franklin, area? Or just where you can get the sleeves from. And how much Id be looking at. Cheers

    The cops in our little town here are real good as long as you aint being stoopid.

    Ask the bike shops in pukekohe who they may recommend for the muffler sleeve. Or custom chambers in East tamaki.

    A good sheet metal worker will sort it pretty fast

    Yeah. Id give it a go but we dont have a decent roller at work. Be less hassle if i could just get a replacement from someone that has them. And i looked online for sheets of carbon fibre and resin but couldnt find any... in NZ anyway.
