Has anyone got an exhaust elbow or more available? I am going to be looking into which way to go, reading here it appears Albert headers & Pipewerx can may be there answer but to keep me going, I am looking to replace the elbow which has broken.

My exhaust has seemed to be getting louder, bike started running lumpy, found the reason, elbow has broken from bracket and separated from the can. Fortunately the can stayed in place. Found a red bull can acquired some jubilee clips and some alliminium tape from a builders merchant in Brecon. Fixed there and then tootled home tenderly.

I will put some pics on the Facebook page, as I'm a numpty and can't put pics on here.

Hopefully someone will have one to sell.

Thank you.

The down pipes are fine, I think.

I need the elobow.

I have a local workshop taking a look tomorrow to see if it is reparable.
