Open up the silencer as if you were changing the packing. Remove the tip from the canister by drilling out the 4 rivets that hold it on. Mark and cut 100mm off the outer canister at the tip end then mark and cut 100mm off the inner core from the tip end. Then measure up and mark where the 4 holes should go, drill the holes and reassemble the new short silencer.

Is that what your after?

Gez,

Where did you get those swingarm protectors? I'm interested in using them, although I've heard that they can hold mud & water in there and cause corrosion/discoloring. Do you find that to be a problem?

Jeff

They're polisport protectors. Haven't popped them off yet. I'd say there's mud caught behind there

I used the hyde ones for about 8 years and they are thicker but worse fitting. I just put a good layer of duct tape on the swingarm and when i sold the bike i ripped it off and used spirits to get the glue off and it was all still fine, there were a few spots where the sand had rubbed through the tape, but caught it in time

Haha worth a try, that'd be like a $14 refund?

In other news, I'm heading out on Saturday
