  • Os 105 powerboost pipe dent

    I crashed my 700n today and the exhaust now has a few dents, 2 of which are quite bad. Other than not looking very pretty does can the dents cause any issues? Can they be removed?

    A dent in the wrong place can brake the internal welds and you'll hear a good rattle but I've seen pretty battered exhausts working fine.
    You can fill it with milk and tape the ports up, freeze it and thats the best you can do to get the dents out, some come out really well.
    Give it a shot!

      It isn't rattling so I think I will leave it alone, if its not going to affect performance.
