Qtip, I feel ya brother, I've had two Gen 1's in the past. The first one I had Dale Walkers 4-2 on it and it went on like butter and performed "FLAWLESSLY". The last Gen 1 I had, I installed the UFO Exhaust and had to fight with it for hours to get it installed (couldn't get the right rear cylinder to stop leaking). Ditch that piece of crap and get you a quality system...Dales, Brocks, what ever...

That sucks man. I was thinking about new exhausts for my 09(ufo being one of the suppliers I was considering). I may reconsider. I wish you a good resolution.	easternsage OFFLINE Fresh Max Posts: 13 Thank you received: 3

Ted, I've a dumb question here (if you're not gonna weld it).....but do you think UFO used that same section (where Y mounts to frame hanger) on their SLIP-ON ThunderMAX? can't tell from your pics. If so, I have a used set of UFO slip-ons that you can have......sitting up in the attic graveyard ---Darel	PeaDawg NOW ONLINE Gold Max Posts: 1632 Thank you received: 816

I can send you you the collector just give the word and it is yours! vmaxmercer	vmaxmercer NOW ONLINE Platinum Max Posts: 2564 Thank you received: 1028

Re: My UFO BATTLE STAR 4-1 Exhaust :( 9 months 4 weeks ago #18

Thx a lot guys, but i know i can have it welded up for a quick fix..I knew i had to fix the wrap on the back left header that's coming unwrapped.And a job that is a pain in the A$$ because of the poor design on UFO's part.Now, i'm looking @ a 6+ hour job to complete..1st I'll take to an exhaust shop have them fix it or come up with something that's NOT hard mounted to the bike..Like Capt. said, rubber it up to the mount bracket.

Rudy, i may take you up on the offer tho..Thx a mill!! I'll let you know if i need it..I shouldn't tho..

Dale Walker, exhaust sure would look and feel a whole lot better to me tho.. Now, to see if i can sale my wife..
