Author Message   Dannybuell Posted on Monday, June 18, 2012 - 02:34 am:        I just bought a used updated exhaust hanger for my 96S1. The thing has two bushings and no instructions. Is the inner bushing for the bracket near the collector on 2" exhaust pipes? I would appreciate some guidance on this before I get started.   Jhuppdog Posted on Monday, June 18, 2012 - 10:27 am:        Pm sent. Lafayette sent me the recall information sheet from Buell with all the instructions for the new mounting bracket. I can forward it to you.   Jayvee Posted on Monday, June 18, 2012 - 11:10 am:        The instructions for the 'Y' mount recall/upgrade are in the knowledge vault: http://www.badweatherbikers.com/buell/messages/384 2/B032-263579.pdf   Dannybuell Posted on Monday, June 18, 2012 - 11:22 am:        Thank you!!!! The instructions do not mention the slotted bracket on the 2" exhaust pipe near the collector that mounts to the old bracket. Is this part ignored?   Jhuppdog Posted on Monday, June 18, 2012 - 02:45 pm:        I would say yes, ignore the slotted bracket on the 2" exhaust pipe near the collector. The new Y bracket takes the place of that bracket. The slotted bracket is the one that everyone has issues with. If I am wrong I am sure someone more knowledgeable will step in and say something.   Buellistic Posted on Monday, June 18, 2012 - 08:08 pm:        It retro fitted to my 1997 S3T !!!   Blks1l Posted on Tuesday, June 19, 2012 - 12:05 am:        I left the small bracket on mine as well with the updated Y bracket.   Dannybuell Posted on Tuesday, June 19, 2012 - 12:20 am:        I appreciate the opinions. That bracket broke off and being stainless my welder told me that heat cycles tend to make stainless brittle. Later in thinking about what he said, I began to wonder if he was suggesting that this might have been the last time.   Coxster Posted on Tuesday, June 19, 2012 - 10:51 pm:        I have bushing kits for the 97-98 muffler ( bought em by mistake, will sell cheap! )
