Well it happened. Last week when I was in Moab, I noticed a lot of popping and sorta backfiring from my Big Gun pipe. Thinking maybe the nuts around the header loosened up I took the pipe off and inspected it. Big one inch crack right where it bolted to the engine. Ya'll were right about the Big Gun. Glad I trailered instead of rode it out. Twitty is back on but not for long. Saving for a Pro Duro. Criswell

Ron, my A15 has only 2,300 miles on it and it just started doing the popping and a little backfiring... How do I investigate that mine is also failed? -Todd ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Sent wirelessly with my HP iPAQ W1000 www.compaq.com/handhelds -----Original Message----- From: ron criswell To: KLR650 DSN_klr650@yahoogroups.com> Sent: Sun Jun 09 21:04:10 2002 Subject: [DSN_klr650] Big Gun died, twitty reborn Well it happened.

acerbis rally pros

Hi, all. There's been a post or two recently about (trouble with) installing different handguards, so I thought I'd put in a plug in favor of the Acerbis Rally Pros. I just put on a pair -- they fit perfectly and went on with no trouble at all, even though I was working in near darkness. The metal spines are solid enough to inspire confidence. Of course, they are a bit expensive when new -- I got mine second hand. Cheers, -Lujo [Non-text portions of this message have been removed]
