Checked with my local dealer and they are out and who knows how long till they can get me one. Anyone have a new one collecting dust they could part with? |

I have a used one but in great condition I can send you for $12 I will send it today via USPS priority mail (you will receive it in about 3 days) I know Buell says to put new clamps on but I have ALWAYS reused mine...this one that I have has never been off the bike or reused |

Why new? It's a way of Harley making sure you return to the to buy, I've used an reused many times parts and only replaced if they were looking bad, truly it's not worth the time to way for a new one, but if you really want one new, why not contact AL American Sport Bike i'm sure he knows best where to get one, i'm not sure if the one for the rear of the D&D will fit. that for sure will last a life time. |

http://www.badweatherbikers.com/buell/messages/142 838/553436.html?1270669181 Some good info on after market sources. A reused clamp is more likely to fail than a new one, just because someone hasn't had a used one fail doesn't mean its a great idea. |

I plan on replacing my stock muffler with a Drummer I bought right after I get the bike back from the 1k service. Could I just get one at say, Home Depot or TSC? |

Did you break your muffler clamp???? or is it damaged??? If not just use the stock one...especially if it only has 1k on it |
