simple one...replaced pipes back to origional (bastard EPA got me) and one of the pipe clamps wont tighten onto the pipe.. (nut gets tight)had to fashion a shim from a bit of car panel metal between the clamp and the pipe to get it to tighten... do they wear/stretch or whatever? or am i missing something?the clamp is in the right spot etc..i noticed bike shop had them super tight when i took the old set off

newbie question... just wondering

 

 

 

cheers Cez

no worries thx guys

Take them apart drill out the spacer so the bolt just runs free and should work. Also grind a little off the spacer.

Or replace!

They're only supposed to be good for 3 times torquing apparently these stock "Torco" clamps

So it depends how mant times the pipes have been off 'n on I suppose

Luckily I've always had "used once" spares lying around
