The other day i was riding, not casing any big jumps or anything, and my e series bracket sheared in half. My friend riding behind me yelled at me to stop and when i did i was pretty surprised

Youre not the only one I have heard with this problem. Seems the E-series has a habit of falling apart...

Does it have the reinforcing brackets that go from the pipe to the silencer or not? I got mine in march of this year and I love it, but not if its gonna break! (mines got the brackets)

white bro's needs to rethink the exhaust mount designs...all i ever hear are about there pipes, cracking, falling off, breaking etc.

but maybe u should get an HMF slipon, there better made, i havent heard anyone complain about them

I've had same experiece with mine. The mounting bracket snapped twice on me and had to get re-welded. The second break was probably due to poor repair weld in the field, (nice to find somebody in the dunes with a welder!) but nonetheless it should not have broken in the first place. Some months later, the entire body just came apart and fell off during a trail ride. I've since gone to the yosh exhaust on my quads and have had no trouble since.

Have fun!

You guys who's e-series broke, did you by any chance let it come loose where it bolts to the sub-frame??

Me 2 :mad: There is just too much weight leveraged between the two mounting brackets. They need another mount on the silencer can. The E-series does give the best power, no good if it doesn't stay together however...:rolleyes2
