I bought a D&D muffler for my '00 S3 to replace my cracked Vance & Hines one. I know I need the Y hanger for the front but I'm not sure about the rear since the V&H was installed when I bought the bike. I'm thinking there was a stock rear bracket that I now need to mount up the D&D? If so, anyone have one they'd part w/? Thanks, Trish |

Trish -- having been down the same road, I can tell you that the Zee Bracket is very reasonably priced (round 20 bucks, if memory serves) from a dealer -- give one of the sponsors a call, and save your prodigious scrounging skills for a more worthy target ;-} |

Trish, I sent you an e-mail with a blow up of all the parts included in the update kit , unfortunately it's not as simple as replacing the front mount, you need the voltage regulator mount, a spacer, misc washers, nuts and bolts... I know it comes with at least one muffler strap .. not sure if it comes with the Z bracket but it may come with all you need to mount your new muffler. Brian |

I think the front mount upgrade was $96 or something. It wasn't hard to do either. If you do do it, remember to make sure the voltage regulator's little ground wire has a nice metal ground. Also, remember to support the bike before taking out those two big bolts in the front of the engine as they hold the rear shock mount. |

Thanks for the tips, guys. I ordered the z bracket today. I just wasn't sure what was stock on the rear so I didn't know what I needed. I'm good to go now! |
