Re-pack exhaust?

[asjr39]

I have the yosh and I need to repack it but I am not looking forward to it. Do any of the other exhaust require you to do the same to repack or just the yosh? I might switch to the Dasa but if I have too go through the same thing I might just stay with the yosh.

All exhausts require repaking every so often. Both 2 stroke and 4 stroke. Just buy a repaking kit and do it yourself. Or pay a bike shop to repack it. Or even better, just buy a new exhaust every time you have to repack and your problem is solved.

You need a rivet gun and some new rivets.

I dont really like exhausts that need to get rivets removed for repacking. My LRD has allen bolts that are much easier than rivets. I dont understand why companies make their exhaust with rivet when they know they will have to be taken off for service. When putting the new rivets in try to use a good rivet gun that will give them a nice tight fit. If you use a cheap rivet gun the vibration will make those rivets loose. Good Luck.

That was my point. Does every exhaust require you too drill and rivet? I know you have to do it, but it seems like a hassle. So are any others exhaust easier to repack or they all the same?

I have an LRD and it is very easy to repack. Instead of rivet it has 5-6 allen bolts. I think Duncan Fat Boy 4's have bolts instead of rivets. I'm sure others do too.
