Broken exhaust, can it be fixed?

Hold the first nut with a wrench then crank the 2nd nut down on it,be careful not to strip out the cylinder holes.

I still think some quality allen head screws and lock washers would be better.

Hes talking about the end cap nut

Ok I'm confused. If I put one nut on and tighten it, then put another on and tighten it, aren't the two tight against each other?
What did I do wrong here?

Put a wrench on one to hold it in place and a socket on the other and start squeeze tightening them against each other to lock them in place against each other.

that would be a nut right.

Ok, thanks Damien. Will try again. It's always something with these bikes isn't it?

EPIC FAIL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Just about had this good and tight when the bolt snapped clean off.

So guess I need to buy that other muffler, the flex one. might not until spring as my riding season is just about over anyway.

Oh well.

Ok, guys, look at this listing. SAYS 2 stroke, mine is 4 but does that matter??? Isn't the mounting plate the same size?

That's a job for brazing or silver solder. Shouldn't take too big a torch to get it hot enough.
