The forward mounting bolt has gone missing on my LeoVince X3 slip on exhaust. Below is not my picture but it shows the bolt i'm talking about: http://www.rickramsey.net/TE610lg/TELV1.jpg It is the forward most bolt/big tapered washer holding the carbon strap with 2 parallel carbon lines around the can. It must have come loose and fallen off. Guess I need more lock-tight next time. I still have the carbon strap and rubber washer. I need a replacement bolt assembly. Can anyone tell me where to get one? I bought the bike with the pipe installed so I don't know if this bolt/washer came with the pipe or is stock Husqvarna. 2006 TE610.
That bolt does come with the pipe. I have a X3 on my TXC and it has the same bolt. The taper part is really just a fancy washer with a 4mm threaded allen bolt. The idea behind it is really to give surface area for the carbon to prevent it from cracking. The taper I think is to keep the side panel off of it.
Thanks, now I know it's a LeoVince bolt/washer. Thanks for all the replies. I'll give LV a call tomorrow and see how much that fancy washer costs.
Or just use a stainless steel fender washer and a M6 socket head bolt. I had to trim a bit off the washer but quick work with a hacksaw.
